Age of Autism Age of Authors
Managing Editors Note: I've heard of some very popular boy band called "One Direction." I couldn't hum a single bar of their music. No idea what they look like. But I like their name because it reminds me of the Age of Autism team. We move in ONE DIRECTION. Forward. While many around us dwell in negatives, in the past, in what's "wrong" with our community and pontificate on and write some seriously nasty gaaaaah-bage as my Mom would say in Boston, our team has been "busy, busy, busy" writing books. Actual books that can never be rescinded, removed or retracted. Old school. BOOKS. The volume of volumes is dare I say? Voluminous! (Humor me, it's the end of a long weekend.....)
Special congrats to our Editor Dan Olmsted and Editor at Large Mark Blaxill on the February debut of Vaccines 2.0: The Careful Parents' Guide to Making Safe Vaccination Choices for Your Family.
We hope that you will buy one or two, perhaps more, of these books. Yes, money is tight. But I can promise you that each and every book will help you as you work with your loved ones with autism, as you discuss the needs of our community with medical providers and politicians and will give you hope that we will all move in ONE DIRECTION. Forward. Like a train.

These books are great gift ideas for family members not yet engaged in autism issues, and especially those of the "I'll believe it when I see it" orientation.

All wonderful books! I'd like to add a few more that I think are outstanding resources on vaccines:
Dr. Harold Buttram: Shaken Baby Syndrome or Vaccine Encephalitis? Obviously the answer in nearly all cases is vaccine encephalitis, exhaustively referenced. Very interesting information on how the child's immune system depends for its training on his getting the natural diseases of measles, mumps, rubella, and chickenpox. No other way to do it. Period. Vaccines screw his immune functioning up, while the natural diseases at the natural time, during childhood, are necessary for lifelong health, including protection from several cancers and degenerative diseases in later life.
Aviva Jill Romm: Vaccinations (especially good for the information on treating patients with the milder diseases, measles, etc., at home with naturopathic remedies)
Wendy Lydall: Raising a Vaccine-Free Child. Extremely interesting, fully-documented information on many aspects of the vaccine question I haven't seen treated anywhere else, like on exactly why fever reducers are so dangerous, and the cell-mediated vs. the humoral mediated immune systems, the first being popular in France when the theory was first introduced, and the second in Germany. Vaccines try to make the first assume the role that was really meant for the second, with all sorts of resulting damage and leaving the more important side untrained.)
Hilary Butler: Just a Little Prick and From One Prick to Another (pun intended). Again, truckloads of very interesting and valuable information on all aspects of the vaccine question.
Jamie Butler: What Every Parent Should Know about Childhood Immunization. This book was published twenty years ago, but has a great history of the damage caused by the polio and pertussis vaccines and a history of the diseases, and information on immune functoning.
Dr. Mayer Eisenstein: Make an Informed Vaccine Decision for the Life of your Child. Densely referenced information on each vaccine, the major studies showing the damage caused by them, lists of the adverse events listed on the package inserts, and lists with case descriptions of a few of the tens of thousands of reports of vaccine-damaged children, with the case numbers.
Anything by Neil Z. Miller. Thousands of pages overall on vaccine damage, with hundreds of pages of works cited with literally thousands of citations of scientific studies on the many different kinds of vaccine damage caused by every vaccine.
Judy Converse: When Your Doctor is Wrong: the Hepatitis-B Vaccine and Autism. Again, superb in its description of what happened to her son, essentially the same as what happened to my daughter, with the second half of the book a description and analysis, with references, of the types of damage done by the hep-B vaccine, the numbers, the lack of any need for the vaccine in babies born to healthy mothers, and her appearance at the congressional (lack of) safety hearing on the vaccine in 1999.
Dr. Richard Halvorsen: The Truth About Vaccines. History and well-documented information from the U.K. Descriptions of the shenanigans by drug companies to prevent studies on vaccine damage from being done. First place I read about the Guinea-Bissau study which found that the measles vaccine in Africa saved lives, but the pertussis vaccine actually resulted in a significantly greater number of deaths in the year after the vaccine was given.
Randall Neustaedter: The Vaccine Guide. Twelve years old, but still one of the best on vaccine damage, many studies referenced. Information from a naturopath on improving the immune system from infancy on.
Trevor Gunn: Vaccines: This book could remove the fear of childhood illnesses. Outstanding treatise from the U.K. Lots of recent documented information I was unaware of.
Heather Fraser: The Peanut Allergy Epidemic. I had no idea until I read this a couple of years ago of the mountains of fascinating historical, scientific, and epidemiological facts proving that vaccines cause autoimmune disease, in this case specifically the Hib vaccine causing peanut allergies, inexistent before peanut oil was used to adjuvant penicillin injections in the '40s, and now in one in fifty vaccinated American children.
This is the most important issue in the world today: literally billions of people being damaged every year, and the authorities ignoring and denying it, everyone in the medical/pharma cartel, government officials and agencies, and mainstream media eager to catch some of the pharma largesse for themselves. I hope everyone concerned will get a few or many of these books and educate themselves and those around them.
