Grandin, Temple Emergence: Labelled Autistic
Brilliant. Changed my thinking entirely. Temple is such a magical woman. The book follows her progress from non-verbal kid to obsessed teenager, trying to figure out how to meet her own sensory integration needs, to innovative adult who's championed animal rights and become the international expert on humane design of slaughterhouses.
