Paperback. Condizione: New. A playful guide to understanding the ways of 'normal people', The Autist's Guide to the Galaxy flips our usual scripts about neurodiversity.Following on from her internationally successful memoir, The Autists, Clara Törnvall has written a fun, comprehensive, and accessible explanation of neurotypical, or 'normal', behaviour. Full of facts, tips, and tests, and developed with input from other autists, this book places the difficulties autists face in the context of a world built for the neurotypical majority. It will help neurodiverse people - and their families, friends, and loved ones - navigate this world, nurture stronger relationships, and thrive.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. An incisive and deeply candid account that explores autistic women in culture, myth, and society through the prism of the author's own diagnosis.Until the 1980s, autism was regarded as a condition found mostly in boys. Even in our time, autistic girls and women have largely remained undiagnosed. When portrayed in popular culture, women on the spectrum often appear simply as copies of their male counterparts - talented and socially awkward.Yet autistic women exist, and always have. They are varied in their interests and in their experiences. Autism may be relatively new as a term and a diagnosis, but not as a way of being and functioning in the world. It has always been part of the human condition. So who are these women, and what does it mean to see the world through their eyes?In The Autists, Clara Törnvall reclaims the language to describe autism and explores the autistic experience in arts and culture throughout history. From popular culture, films, and photography to literature, opera, and ballet, she dares to ask what it might mean to re-read these works through an autistic lens - what we might discover if we allow perspectives beyond the neurotypical to take centre stage.…

It will help neurodiverse people - and their families, friends, and loved ones - navigate this world, nurture stronger relationships, and thrive.'Clara T rnvall's cheeky, illuminating social manual The Autist's Guide to the Galaxy turns the tables on autism conversations by focusing on how to engage with neurotypical people . Because articles about neurodiversity are often penned by non-autists - sometimes with the implicit directive to "help" those with diagnoses conform themselves more to the rest of the world - Swedish author, producer, and autist T rnvall steps in with lighthearted realism . With its tips to help autists thrive, The Autist's Guide to the Galaxy is an encouraging, entertaining overview of common social challenges.'-ForwardPraise for The Autists:'T rnvall has written an important, illuminating first book, one that deserves to sit alongside the best insider accounts of autism . The Autists should be required reading for all parents, partners, friends and colleagues of anyone on the autism spectrum, as well as a road map for autistic women navigating the neurotypical world.'-James Cook, Times Literary Supplement'T rnvall was diagnosed as autistic at the age of forty-two, and The Autists takes her own experience as a lens through which to explore the phenomena and experiences of autistic women more generally. Its research is wide-ranging . I was particularly delighted by T rnvall's chapter on language, "Too Much Faith in Words".'-Caitlin McGregor, Sydney Review of Books Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

An insightful and involving narrator, T rnvall movingly explores how women with so-called "high-functioning autism" persisted in harnessing their abilities whether or not they lived in a time that recognised their neurotype. This winning combination of memoir and cultural history stimulates and entertains in equal measure.'-Publishers Weekly, starred review'Even if you ought to avoid hyping the autistic as superheroes, T rnvall shows that conformity to the norm is a ludicrous waste of the power in these beautiful brains.'-Dagens Nyheter Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
