Look inside a life with Autism

I recently saw the book Thinking in Pictures: And Other Reports from My Life with Autism at Goodwill and thought it looked interestring. This was an absolutely amazing book. I would say it's one of the best I've ever read. I could have done without the details of the inhumane treatment in some slaughterhouses, but it's amazing that a lady with autism has helped changed the meat industry. To be honest, I wasn't as interested in the part about her work as much as I was in the accounts of how she thinks, social interactions, etc. This is an excellent book, and one I will recommend to several people.

Hey, read your blog, displaying an interesting array of addictions or rather more sanely put time- squashers-you-can't-live-without,i.e. tube and the total books.
All these years i've waited for some one to pop up out of nowhere sharing similar traits of interest as me.Actually for me reading and telivision surfing are religious rites, and amusingly i adher to them with utmost care.(considering the paganism that drives us away from church or anything remotely religious these calamaty hit days).
And another interesting addition perhaps here, that the sphere of the globe where i dwell piracy and utter and adament disrespect for cpyright acts churn out books so cheap that even my pathetic budget line could shove their expenditure graph underneath it.
created wolf,
would be honoured by your reply or comment hoisted at my blog www.native-pain.blogspot.com
