"Julie Lapidus is a dedicated and tireless researcher whose work is deeply personal. Having been directly impacted by autism within her own family, she has devoted much of her life to seeking answers and advancing understanding for the autism community. Her book offers a comprehensive examination of the challenges within the autism research landscape and translates those insights into practical, forward-thinking strategies that can be applied in real-world settings." --Dr. Shawn Centers, MD(H), DO(H), MH, BCIP, professor of pediatrics & integrative medicine and chief medical officer of The Integrative HOPE Center of Arizona "Julie''s book, The Autism Generation, is a compelling and courageous look at the autism epidemic. Rooted in her personal journey with her brother, she blends lived experience with in-depth research to challenge readers to think critically while offering hope and practical solutions for families navigating autism." --Tracy Slepcevic, bestselling author of Warrior Mom: A Mother''s Journey In Healing Her Son with Autism and Member of the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC) under HHS " The Autism Generation is a deeply investigative, courageous, and compassionate guide which needs to be taken seriously and distributed widely. I predict it will become the definitive guide to understanding autism''s causes, prevention, and solutions, bridging the gap between scientific literature and everyday application to empower parents to take an active role in their child''s health and healing.

It is a valuable resource for advocates, families, lawmakers, and professionals seeking evidence-based insights, guidance, and hope to change the future for our children." --Valeri Marsh, vice president, Children''s Health Defense - Arizona Chapter and founder of Arizonans for Safe Technology "Author Julie Lapidus obviously did a great deal of work on this historical book; I was impressed by her research. Her book is unique by combining the history of what deeply hurt children via thimerosal and aluminum, followed by explaining ways to physically help them. Julie composed the book hoping to protect the brains and bodies of others. It is my opinion that, because of Skyhorse Publishing''s health-related books, Skyhorse cares about its readers." --Teri Arranga, president emeritus, Autism International Association " The Autism Generation is a courageous and deeply important book that sheds much needed light on the environmental, nutritional, and lifestyle factors driving the autism epidemic. As a nutritionist, I appreciate Julie Lapidus''s thorough research and balanced approach, which not only explores the root causes but also offers practical, empowering solutions for families and practitioners. This book bridges science and real-world application, helping readers understand how modern toxins, food systems, and lifestyle exposures impact neurological development while restoring hope through education and prevention.

The Autism Generation is an essential resource for parents, caregivers, and anyone committed to protecting the health of future generations." --Liana Werner-Gray, bestselling author and functional nutritionist "When it comes to autism and the autism spectrum there are two important questions; what is causing it and how do we best help those who are struggling with the condition. Enter this amazing book that absolutely delivers on "Understanding the Autism Epidemic from Causes to Solutions". If you have ever heard that we don''t know what causes autism, this book shatters that statement. There are over 100 pages with detailed references documenting what causes autism and the mechanisms. This is high level science." --Paul Thomas, MD, author of Vax Facts and The Vaccine-Friendly Plan ; Host of Good Morning CHD-Pediatric Perspectives; founder and host of With the Wind: Science Revealed; cofounder KidsFirst4Ever.com "Julie''s unique perspective is captivating and inspiring, from living through vaccine reactions herself, to having a brother diagnosed on the autism spectrum who had multiple regressions, finally taking the journey to both heal themselves.

These angles make The Autism Generation all the more potent. Julie breaks down the cumulative load of the mercury and aluminum of the vaccine schedule in an easy to understand, eye opening reveal. As she surprisingly shows that mercury really never was taken out of some vaccines! The deep understanding through years of research and life experience give her the ability to simplify the complexities of regressions, reactions and most importantly, the rejuvenation paths that have helped many families." --Ryan Hetrick, Director, Restoring Balance: Autism Redefined "In The Autism Generation , Julie Lapidus maps with extensive citation of science the autism crisis with uncommon clarity, tracing how toxic exposures, regulatory failure, and iatrogenic risk converge on the developing brain--and how families can navigate that landscape with data, discernment, and courage. Young adults planning to have children will find in these pages both a stark, evidence-driven warning and a practical blueprint for protecting fertility, pregnancy, and the neurodevelopmental health of the next generation." --James Lyons-Weiler, PhD, President, Institute for Pure and Applied Knowledge (IPAK), founder, IPAK-EDU.org, editor-in-chief, Science, Public Health Policy & the Law "The medical community will ignore this book. Parents shouldn''t.

We are living in the Dark Ages when it comes to children''s health, and this book shines the light of truth on the causes. There is no more critical issue today than the harm which is being inflicted on children every day when they walk into a pediatrician''s office. This book will stand the test of time and be read fifty years from now in the same way we read Rachel Carson''s 1962 environmental classic, Silent Spring ." -- Kent Heckenlively, New York Times bestselling author "Julie Lapidus'' book is an extraordinary achievement as it represents one of the clearest expositions about the history of vaccines and their trajectory from the days of Edward Jenner to currently dominating much of clinical medicine, particularly pediatrics. Other books, mostly by academics, have recently been added to an essential re-evaluation of vaccines. However, Lapidus'' book stands out from these because it personalizes the impact of vaccines on health: She describes how she suffered from vaccine injury and her brother became autistic. It should also be noted that Lapidus is not a formally trained scientist in this field which makes the depth of her knowledge even more impressive, including how mercury and aluminum likely contribute to the explosion of autism spectrum disorder. Not only does Lapidus provide a detailed evaluation of the available science, she also offers ways for parents to restore the health of their children who may be vaccine damaged.

I learned a lot from this book. Read it and you will too." --Christopher A. Shaw, PhD, neuroscientist, professor, Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, University of British Columbia.
