Often, when autistic people and non-autistic people talk about autism, they鈥檙e talking about two different things. "L'Autisme expliqu茅 aux non-autistes" attempts to bridge the gap between these perspectives.
听
Written by an autistic woman, a clinician, and a mother of an autistic child, the authors debunk stereotypes, presenting autism not as a disorder, but as a unique way of functioning. Through 55 common misconceptions, they explore various myths and misunderstood behaviors. It is a highly relevant book, easy to read and understand.
