Autism And The Myth Of The Person Alone

Biklen (cultural foundations of education, Syracuse U.) challenges the prevailing tragic narrative about living with autism by centering his book around chapters written or narrated by people with autism. Each author communicates by typing or by a combination of speech and typing. These narratives reveal the rich and insightful perspectives of people who are usually thought to be uninterested in the world. Annotation 穢2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
