The lost girls of autism : how science failed autistic women, and the new research that's changing the story
Rippon, Gina2025
Book
When autistic girls meet clinicians, they are often misdiagnosed with anxiety, depression, personality disorders, or are missed altogether. Autism's 'male spotlight' means we are only now starting to redress this profound injustice. In 'The Lost Girls of Autism', renowned brain scientist Gina Rippon delves into the emerging science of female autism, asking why it has been systematically ignored for so long.
