I just finished reading this book and will probably read it at least 3 more times so that I can wrap my brain around the “science part.” I loved that everything Grandin and Richard Panek wrote about distilled down to their insistence that it’s time to turn the language around – to start focusing on the strengths of individuals who have Asperger’s.
Your article was a clear summary of some of the main points.
being born in he late 40’s too and never really knowing why I was so good at some things in life and so disconneced in some other ways, I totally get the explanations and conclusions Temple Grandin expresses. I have some talents with “details” which earned me a good living and compliments from people who would generally not recognize me at all, in any way. I have always said my hero in life is Helen Keller”keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows.” I’m 64 now and I gotta add one more person , Temple Grandin. Thanks for being there.
