Written from a male and female perspective of two Asperger's adults it looks at:

These courageous authors have drawn upon their personal experiences to provide an outstanding series of books aimed to support and enhance the quality of life for other Asperger adults.

  1. 4/5 Marianne L

    Det här är en mycket bra bok om diagnosen Asperger skriven av två personer med personlig erfarenhet. Författarna gör inget anspråk på vetenskaplighet och hänvisar läsaren till aktuell forskning vilket ökar trovärdigheten i det de beskriver. I stället ger de möjlighet till flera fallbeskrivningar där personer med eller utan medicinskt verifierad diagnos möjlighet att beskriva sina erfarenheter av Asperger. Boken är välskriven och ger en hög igenkänningsfaktor. Fallbeskrivningarna ger insikt om hur symtomatologin skiljer sig mellan olika personer.
