Loving Your Place on the Spectrum

"Loving Your Place on the Spectrum-a book about autism by an autistic author-is a guide for a happy and successful life for both autistic individuals and the neurotypical people in their lives. Combining his own experiences with stories from other autistics, author Jude Morrow explores common issues and misconceptions faced by autistic people and explains how family members, educators, and professionals can offer support that focuses on skills and contributions and not just perceived problems. The world needs a new perspective-one that acknowledges neurodiversity not as a disorder but as an identity. Loving Your Place on the Spectrum provides that alternative with a strengths-based viewpoint where autistic people are accepted, embraced, and loved exactly as they are"--.
