I met Adam Feinstein of Wales (UK) in January 2008, when he interviewed me at the 2nd South Asian Autism conference in Dehli, India. His book "A History of Autism: Conversation with the pioneers" was published last month in UK, containing my interview.

Adam Feinstein is also the organizer of the largest Autism conference on earth, see the list of presenters at the annual Autism research conference online. They include people like Simon Barron Cohen, Gary Mesibov and many leading scientists and educators.

Adam has been publishing his monthly "Looking-up Autism" English newsletter for many years now, you can read selected articles free online. Since there is no single regular or monthly resource for readers of the Urdu language of Pakistan and India, the Looking-up Autism newsletter has been made available in Urdu for the first time. You can download and read the contents page here.
The full 16 page copy of the newsletter is now on sale online at www.lookingupautism.pk for Pakistani Rs. 150 (UK Pounds 1.15)
and payment can be made to them by any credit card.

Adam has pledged to donate 5% of his sales to the British Telecom (UK) fund to help the flood victims in Pakistan.

If the newsletter gets a response, we can look forward to news coverage about Autism in Pakistan, as well as editorial coverage and exclusive articles about our country and autism. Dont underestimate their reach, this newsletter also has a printed version available across north america, europe and most of the western world. Please inform other people about this new development. I personally translated the newsletter from english to urdu,
