## Description

WANT TO READ JUST ONE BOOK ABOUT AUTISM? READ THIS. Written by Temple Grandin – one of the world’s most well-known autistic thinkers – The Autistic Brain is the groundbreaking, insightful and inspirational bestseller that combines scientific research with real lived experience to offer an accessible, hopeful and practical look at what autism really is. 'An extraordinary source of inspiration for autistic children, their parents - and all people' Time It's estimated that one in almost a hundred people are diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum. Thanks to ground-breaking new research, there is far more hope for them today than ever before. In this fascinating and highly readable book, Temple Grandin offers her own experience as an autistic person alongside genetic research and remarkable new discoveries about the autistic brain. Grandin highlights the need to treat autism symptom by symptom, rather than with an umbrella diagnosis and argues that raising and educating children on the autistic spectrum needs to be less about focusing on their weaknesses, and more about fostering their unique contributions. Her compassionate, authoritative, and accessible writing will assist not only fellow autistics and families with neurodivergent members, but also researchers and physicians seeking to better understand the condition. Written in a clear and concise way, and with illustrative diagrams and key points pulled out for emphasis, this inspiring guide will change the perception of autism. Praise for The Autistic Brain : ' The Autistic Brain can both enlighten readers with little exposure to autism and offer hope and compassion to those who live with the condition' Scientific American 'Grandin has helped us understand autism not just as a phenomenon, but as a different but coherent mode of existence that otherwise confounds us...' New York Times 'Enjoyable, insightful read' ***** Reader review 'This book is a delight from start to finish' ***** Reader review ' Superb, readable book' ***** Reader review ' Great book . Very insightful and easy to follow' ***** Reader review

Review: Fabulous read! - This book is a delight from start to finish. It doesn't only mention all you need to know about autism but challenges preconceptions and the dangers of labeling but also gives sound advice about how to see the disorder in a positive light. Tenple Grandin is an inspiration to all of us whether autistic or not as she emphasizes the fact that we should look at the talents and abilities in a person and nurture them rather than insist on deficits. She also suggests that today's education system is too unilateral in that it favors the 'word-fact thinkers', leaving so many people feeling they don't fit into the mould. Her idea is that there are more than one way to think: in picture, in words and in patterns, which challenges IQ tests and the way we teach children in school and raise them at home. It's a thought-provoking read which was very well written and I will recommend it to anyone who is interested in knowing more about the diversity of brains and their individual thinking processes. Fabulous read!
Review: Great book - I really love this book, I got so much out of it. It helped me to see beyond the existence of ‘umbrella diagnoses’ and it helped me understand how I can make the most of my strengths. Would love to read more from this author, it would be interesting to read about how autistic people can support their nervous system as it plays in so much with health - meltdowns/shutdowns.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice book but quite hard to process
*by M***A on 25 February 2024*

This book was a nice read but it was a difficult read at the same time. It is very informative and does explain the autistic brain very well however the way it was written was quite overwhelming for me. I suffer from visual stress so I find it very difficult to read on white paper and the text was very close together and there was a lot of writing on each page but there was also plenty of visuals in there to support proccessing. This book is good to read in chunks, its a nice book to add to my collection of books on autism
