Thinking In Pictures : and Other Reports from My Life with Autism
reviewed on + 28 more book reviews


"A uniquely fascinating view not just of autism but of animal--and human--thinking and feeling, (providing) insights that can only be called wisdom." "There are innumerable astounding facets to this remarkable book. ...Displaying uncanny powers of observation... (Temple Grandin) charts the differences between her life and the lives of those who think in words." It was fascinating to me to learn about an autistic woman who bridged the "gulf" between her life and our own, even though she thinks in pictures and I think in words. A remarkable person and a very interesting and enlightening book.
