Question about Guide to Asperger's by Tony Attwood.

Post Reply New Topic

I got a preview on my Kindle App and read some of it but came to 4 pages that were grey (just grey blank pages). I assumed this was a problem with the Kindle being a preview version of the book but I downloaded the full version and there are grey pages there too. It's very distracting. Is my Kindle App broke? Or is this book normal to have grey blank pages? Let me know if it's the book or my Kindle App. Thanks.

Which pages are gray?

Let me check. Advantages/disadvatages of a diagnosis (Chapter 1.) It says that someone suggest Asperger's syndrome is the next stage of human evolution. (Below that is a gray box NO text) Next page Grey, Next Grey, Third Grey, Fourth Grey, and then a block of grey on the fifth page and bullet points covering what chapter 1 was about. Hope that explained it well enough.

Yeah, those pages are full of text and aren't grey.

I deleted Kindle and went back into the Android market and downloaded that version (the same thing and it saved all my stuff). It works fine now. It shows the text on those boxes. Can't wait to get back to reading this fascinating book.

Android? I like the cut of your jib.

And yes, it is a good book. It was pretty valuable to me.

Excellent book. Changed my life.

I kind of want to read it...
It's probably better than Grandin's books on similar subject matter.

I don't always like his stuff but as far as knowing a lot about the sheer diversity of autistic people that book is very good for that. (It also applies well beyond autistic people with the AS diagnosis, it often goes for the rest of us too.)
