Damian Milton is a Senior Lecturer in Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities at the Tizard Centre, University of Kent. Damian's interest in autism began when his son was diagnosed in 2005 as autistic aged 2 and he was diagnosed with Asperger's in 2009 aged 36. Damian's primary focus is on increasing the meaningful participation of autistic people and people with learning disabilities in the research process and chairs the Participatory Autism Research Collective (PARC). Sara Ryan is a Professor of Social Care, Manchester Metropolitan University. Her research focuses on autism, learning disabilities, and marginalised groups.

"This handbook, the first of its kind, provides an authoritative and up-to-date overview of Critical Autism Studies and explores the different kinds of knowledges and their articulations, similarities and differences across cultural contexts and key tensions within this sub-discipline. It will be of interest to all scholars and students of disability studies, sociology, anthropology, cultural studies, education, health, social care and political science"-- Provided by publisher.
