A Blind Spot on Autism is written for parents, clinicians, and researchers who recognize there is more to autism than abnormal behavior. This book provides a biologically plausible hypothesis for six critical unanswered questions at the center of the autism pandemic. These include why symptoms begin so early in life and can begin suddenly, why siblings share overlapping conditions, why autoimmune diseases cluster in families, why autistic individuals face a markedly higher medical burden across their lifespan which is sixteen to thirty years shorter than average, and why autism rates continue to rise exponentially which resembles a generational infectious epidemic.

Coauthored by one of the world's leading infectious disease researchers, this book examines evidence from hundreds of peer reviewed studies that point to a biological pathway long overlooked in autism studies. It exposes a blind spot in research and clinical care and argues that these symptoms are not random and not coincidental. Interwoven throughout the scientific exploration are personal stories and patient experiences that bring these patterns to life and reveal their human impact.

A Blind Spot on Autism proposes a clear, unifying hypothesis that integrates these findings and outlines the research urgently needed to test it. This is not a book of guesses. It is a book of evidence, patterns, and possibilities that families and clinicians have been waiting for. If you have ever sensed that something deeper is happening inside the body, this book will help you see the missing pieces.
