Such an insightful and fascinating look into the way Dr. Grandin observes and processes information. Even if you or someone you love is autistic, this adventure into her personal world and how she navigates it will change and evolve your own awareness. Autism manifests according to the individual. Learning who Dr. Grandin is and how she has contributed her own unique gifts to the world, told in her own words, deepened my appreciation of the variety of innate gifts and skills we each bring to life.
