Have you ever worked with anyone who is living with autism? Over the years I have been in situations where I have interacted professionally and informally with folks who have some form of autism, but I have never looked into this subject. Therefore, recently, I decided it was time to look below the surface and find out more. Temple Grandin's 240 page paperback, "The Autistic Brain: Thinking Across the Spectrum" was the first resource I nabbed, and how grateful I am to have picked it up. Grandin, a professor of animal science at Colorado State University and accomplished author speaks on autism from the inside out. The book is her story dancing together with the life-stories of many others who live with autism."The Autistic Brain" is, surprisingly, an easy read. In spite of the fairly technical chapters on brain formation and functionality, and the different ways autistics think (word-fact, picture or pattern), the author keeps the reader's attention focused and flowing. Like a trail guide at a national park, she walks the person who is reading on the right track, moving to the side on occasion to point out significant scenery, and then resuming the trek further along to trail's destination. Grandin tackles nature and nurture in graceful ways that give hope and insight both to those who are living with autism and those who live around autistics. As the author puts it, "Neuroanatomy isn't destiny. Neither is genetics. They don't define who you will be. But they do define who you might be. They define who you can be" (174)."The Autistic Brain" is a valuable and lucid asset. This book will benefit anyone with autism, giving them a sense of anticipation. It also should be in the hands of parents who have children (young, teen or adult) coping with this neurological irregularity, to encourage them and aid them as they support and love their child. I gladly recommend the book.
This book is super fascinating! My grandson is high functioning autistic and after reading this book I now suspect my youngest son is also.. but not ever officially "diagnosed" as such. What I like is that the Temple Grandin walks you through a lot of the historical science of autism and then her questions and theories are the same ones that jumped out at me as I was reading it... then she dives into more research that she has uncovered in trying to answer those questions. We don't know enough about autism today and even if you don't know someone with autism, what I thought was so fascinating is learning more about how the brain works & why we all have different strengths & weaknesses. If we figure out more about autism it will undoubtedly shed a lot of light on the rest of us with the 'average' ho-hum brains! I will re-read this one again - High recommend! Great book and well written.
When I began reading this book I wasn't sure it would have much application to me as an educator of children with autism, but boy was I wrong! This book is a must-read for those who have loved ones on the spectrum or who are, themselves, on the spectrum. Temple opened my mind to new ways to teach my kiddos by focusing on their individual strengths. I even had the honor of meeting her at a book signing in my city recently.
Love Temple! Ever since I watched her movie about 7 years ago I have become such a fan! Until I had a child of my own 3 years ago and he was diagnosed with ASD I started to read more of her books about autism. She is such an inspiration to parents and so knowledgeable. This book is a must have for anyone who has ASD, is a caregiver, teacher, parent, family member, or has contact with anyone with ASD. Temple covers everything from the neurological basis, behaviors, examples, research, as well as explains the research and findings at a level that everyone can understand. I honestly believe that is you can understand what is going on inside of the brain and why, you can better understand the person and the behaviors.Thank you Temple for everything you do!
Very interesting. As I suspected, it describes the hard wiring in our brain, especially of an autistic/gifted one in a manner I expected. A very useful part of this book is at the end where it describes three types of thinkers and the most likely jobs for each. This is very useful information that needs further exploration. I am older and in my high school they had career testing. This is good but I think there might be something that can be done earlier in a child's school career.We all have strengths and weaknesses that need to be explored plus the sides of each of us that need some assistance. In my time, schools had money for enrichment classes. Ex. I took chemistry in the fifth grade, and studied in depth about Pompeii in the fourth. Now, it is left to parents to fill those gaps. Classes on social expectations such as how to have a conversation, etc. would be excellent for high-functioning Aspergers , and I think the others as well. Then all would know our social cues together just like we must learn math, science, history, etc. A lot of our society now focuses on weaknesses, instead of our individual gifts. Bullies seem to be rewarded and continue their rein even into adulthood and the workplace. People are judged on whether they have the perfect body and perceived flaws are magnified. Acceptance of each all our gifts and those around us is key. If we were all the same then our society would not evolve. Thank goodness for people like Temple.
Loved the science explanations, and even bought a copy for my family to help them understand ASD better. I would like to see more people with the knowledge Temple Grandin's book passes on. Her insightful clear understanding of the types of thinkers and the way Autistic people proscess information should be a must read for every psychiatrist/psychologist/therapist out there in my opinion.This book would be helpful to anyone with or without ASD in better understanding and I recommend it to anyone trying to help their loved ones better understand "what's really going on" in the non-neurotypical brain.
