AS is a neurological disorder on the autism spectrum. In the Aaron Tucker books, Ethan Tucker has Asperger Syndrome, which manifests itself mostly in social skills deficiencies. Quite often, people with AS have difficulty making eye contact, understanding idioms (“I’m just pulling your leg”) and body language, and reading tone of voice, among other difficulties.
