App Description

HEALING AND PREVENTING AUTISM by Jenny McCarthy (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).

Jenny McCarthy and Dr. Kartzinel have put together a book to educate parents in the pioneering Defeat Autism Now (DAN) school of treating autism, the leading disorder affecting children in the United States today.

Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing. Based on a library-quality recording, this app was built especially for your iPhone and iPod Touch. No unreadable text, no endless scrolling on a tiny screen. The audio is of higher-than-normal quality, making for a great listening experience that will not tire your ears or grate on your nerves.

NOTICE: This app includes the exact same 5-star recording offered elsewhere at much higher prices. It was professionally recorded by Blackstone Audio’s Earphones®-winning narrator, Tavia Gilbert. You are not buying yet another amateur or volunteer narration. No clicks, background noises, throat clearing, mispronunciations, tinny voices or monotones will be found here.

•EXPERIENCE. About 9.5 hours of narration. Created as a Folium enhancedAudio™ edition, this book includes extra functions and features not found on lesser players.

•PLAYER CONTROLS. Includes listen (play), pause, multi-speed fast forward/reverse, jump ahead/back, chapter skip, volume control, one-touch chapter- and bookmark browser. There is also a “scrub” bar that finds any point inside the chapter with just a tap.

•SLEEP TIMER. Have you ever fallen asleep watching TV or listening to a book? If so, you'll love this feature. Once set, the book will stop, place a bookmark, and allow you to jump back to where you probably began dozing.

•CLEAR & ELEGANT DESIGN. Simple, clean, intuitive, and smarter than average.

•CHAPTER TIMINGS. Always know how much time it will take to finish a chapter. Plus, the progress bar at the top of the screen shows how far into the book you’ve come.

•OFFLINE LISTENING. You are airplane-ready! Once downloaded, listen uninterrupted without threat from a lost network connection. Downloads are usually just 5-10 minutes, but depend upon your network speed.

•AUTO-BOOKMARKING. The player remembers where you stopped listening and returns to that exact spot when you open the book again.

•TELL-A-FRIEND. An easy way to recommend the book to your friends or Twitter feed.

•FEEDBACK. Share your ideas for books, functions, and features. We are very responsive to our listeners and appreciate all feedback and ideas.


RATING: Suitable for anyone who wishes to learn more about autism, and for parents with children afflicted by it.

___________________
Over the past few years, autism has grown at epidemic rates, becoming the leading disorder affecting children in the United States. A school of Defeat Autism Now (DAN) pediatricians have been pioneering therapies and treatments that help reverse the effects of autism, but it can take over six to eight months to get an appointment with a DAN doctor. Now, Dr. Jerry Kartzinel and Jenny McCarthy have put together a book that will give parents all the necessary information about the DAN school of treating autism.

Early intervention is the key to a successful recovery, and Dr. Kartzinel shows parents how to make simple changes to their child’s environment and diet that are safe and easy to try at home. He also explains some of the more advanced therapies that DAN doctors use, and how to determine whether or not such treatments would benefit your child.
