HI
I am looking for some good autism biography books. I have already read Donna Williams book and Iris Johansson
Is there any more
Anyone more who'w read the iris johansson book "a different childhood" Because when I read it it feels just like its written about me, when I was younger I felt just the same way.. more?
donna williams is actualy alleged to not be on the spectrum, a number of professors and specialists who have assessed her have said some pretty concerning stuff about her in fact,PM if woud like the sources tomorow; have had night meds so cant do anything concentration wise.
had felt in much agreement because had always felt there was something emulated about her without knowing the words for it,am able to recognise even the mildest aspies so its not a case of being unable to recognise an individual expression of autism.
another recommendation for temple grandin and tito mukhopadhyay.
if are interested in documentaries there are some good ones of both temple and tito [when he was a lot younger and more profoundly autistic],also some good ones about stephen wiltshire to,all of these are classic autistic but at different levels.
