When researching a topic one of the first things I like to do is take a look at Wikipedia. There is a lot of stuff there and lots of links. When a topic is riddled with controversy, like autism is, Wikipedia provides differing points of view. Going deeper in the "discussion" page one can see further opinions, discussions, arguments. Then I follow the links and related topics.
All this is useful even when I am quite familiar with the topic, like with autism. I frequently find things I am not aware of, but also, more importantly, I find well documented arguments pro and con and get to challenge my own prejudice and preconception.
So here it is...
