Leo Kanner's study "Autistic Disturbances of Affective Contact" was published in the journal "Nervous Child" in 1943. Hans Asperger’s study entitled "'Autistic Psychopathy' in Childhood"; was published in "Archiv fur Psychiatrie und Nervenkrankheiten" in 1944 – but was not translated until 1994. <br> In the United States, a reasonable estimate is that 30 or 40 children out of every 10,000 are diagnosed with autism, and another 30 or 40 are diagnosed with other Pervasive Developmental Disorders. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.washtimes.com/upi-breaking/20050126-113404-1472r.htm " target="blank">www.washtimes.com/upi-breaking/20050126-113404-1472r.htm </a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
