Resumen del Editor
When Jackie Schuld’s therapist suggested she might be autistic, she scoffed. She knew there was no way she could be autistic. She was in her mid-30s and ran her own therapy private practice. Everything she learned about autism in her Master’s program in mental health counseling didn’t apply to her. She could make excellent eye contact. She could engage in deep conversations. She could attend social gatherings. She could make it through abrupt changes and remain flexible.
How could she be autistic?
The more she learned about autism — how it internally impacts autistics and how it can present in women — the more she saw herself.
All those times she’d felt too much or thought too much started to make sense. She could see why she’d always felt — off .
As she talked with other autistics, read books, and studied articles, she pieced together a new picture of autism. She processed all of the information through her writing and art. This book is a collection of the essays through which she came to understand autism — and herself.
Her book explores why autism is commonly misunderstood and provides personal stories that illustrate the primary impacts of autism, including:
- Mental characteristics
- Emotional characteristics
- Sensory system characteristics
- Body characteristics
- Passions (special interests)
- Socializing
Although she couldn’t see herself as autistic before, Jackie now knows without a doubt that she is autistic.

If you ask a Finn, they will likely be as baffled as you are. That’s why Melanie Dower, an expat who has been living in Finland for the past decade, has taken up the charge. Her vantage as an outsider entrenched in Finnish culture uniquely positions her to identify the keys to Finnish happiness that elude the rest of the world and that Finns take for granted. From sauna to strong social safety nets, Finnish life is made up of a constellation of habits and structures that leave its residents relaxed, healthy, and fulfilled.

But now, in this extraordinary, groundbreaking book, the nation's leading expert on predicting violent behavior unlocks the puzzle of human violence and shows that, like every creature on earth, we have within us the ability to predict the harm others might do us and get out of its way. Contrary to popular myth, human violence almost always has a discernible motive and is preceded by clear warning signs.

Indeed, Baron-Cohen argues that autistic people have played a key role in human progress for 70,000 years, from the first tools to the digital revolution. How? Because the same genes that cause autism enable the pattern seeking that is essential to our species' inventiveness.

A neurodivergent's guide to embracing your true self and finding your happily ever after. Growing up, Chloé Hayden felt like she'd crash-landed on an alien planet where nothing made sense. Eye contact? Small talk? And why are you people so touch-oriented? She moved between 10 schools in 8 years, struggling to become a person she believed society would accept, and was eventually diagnosed with autism and ADHD. When a life-changing group of allies showed her that different did not mean less, she learned to celebrate her true voice and find her happily ever after.

What causes autism? Is it a genetic disorder, or due to some unknown environmental hazard? Are we facing an autism epidemic? What are the main symptoms, and how does it relate to Asperger syndrome? Everyone has heard of autism, but the disorder itself is little understood. It has captured the public imagination through films and novels portraying individuals with baffling combinations of disability and extraordinary talent, and yet the reality is that it often places a heavy burden on sufferers and their families.

Adults on the autism spectrum rarely have access to services once they age out of the school system. Many on the spectrum struggle with forming and building relationships, finding and maintaining jobs, and managing their day-to-day lives. Life Coaching, specifically for adults on the spectrum or anyone who considers themselves neurodivergent, can provide individuals, other coaches, parents, and professionals the tools and skills necessary to guide people to success.

Like many others on the autism spectrum, 20-something stand-up comic Michael McCreary has been told by more than a few well-meaning folks that he doesn’t “look” autistic. But, as he’s quick to point out in this memoir, autism “looks” different for just about everyone with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

In Unmasking Autism, Dr. Devon Price shares their personal experience with masking and blends history, social science research, prescriptions, and personal profiles to tell a story of neurodivergence that has thus far been dominated by those on the outside looking in. For Dr. Price and many others, Autism is a deep source of uniqueness and beauty. Unfortunately, living in a neurotypical world means it can also be a source of incredible alienation and pain.

With a reporter’s eye and an insider’s perspective, Eric Garcia shows what it’s like to be autistic across America. Garcia began writing about autism because he was frustrated by the media’s coverage of it; the myths that the disorder is caused by vaccines, the narrow portrayals of autistic people as white men working in Silicon Valley. His own life as an autistic person didn’t look anything like that.

Autism—that’s being able to count matches really fast and knowing that 7 August 1984 was a Tuesday, right? Well, no. In this book, Bianca Toeps explains in great detail what life is like when you’re autistic. She does this by looking at what science says about autism (and why some theories can go straight in the trash), but also by telling her own story and interviewing other autistics.

Niamh Garvey offers tips and tricks designed to reduce sensory and emotional stress and look after your autistic self. From understanding what's happening when the stress response kicks in to using the 'detective habit' to spot your individual strengths and triggers.

Very informative
This was very informative. I liked the essay set up. It’s all listed by topics. I will be listening to this one again.
It made me five stars for performance and story. It’s an automated voice and I listened to it on high speed, so I can’t really judge that. Also, it’s non fiction.

Excellent Coverage of Issues We Face
This book is a collection of essays on most issues faced by autistic adults. The information is accurate and personal enough that it is easy to identify with. I would happily have any of my loved ones read this book to gain insight into me. Each essay is enough information to inform but not so much as to overwhelm. It is easily accessible by non-scientists or neurotypical people. I recommend reading it essay by essay with some time to process in between. Read, digest, and then move on.
Text to speech has dramatically improved compared to a few years ago. The narration is pleasant and adequate for a book that creates its dramatic effect with its content and not with the acting chops of the narrator.
