About this product
Product Information
This is a rich and positive description of how it feels to be autistic and how friends, family and the professionals that work with autistic people can be more sensitive to their needs. Jasmine Lee O'Neill, autistic herself, perceives the creativity, imagination and keenly-felt sensory world of the autistic person as gifts. She argues that 'normalizing' autistic people - pushing them into behaving in a way that is alien to their true natures - is not just ineffective but wrong. In this vivid and enjoyable book, she challenges the reader to accept their difference and to celebrate their uniqueness. The book contains a wealth of insight into the autistic world and the author covers all the main topics of most concern for people with autism. She identifies the reasons for particular characteristic behaviour and is both clear and sensitive about whether, and if how so, the autistic person should be encouraged to adapt such behaviours. Drawn from her own experience, she has many suggestions for ways in which the 'normal' world can shape itself to work around the behavioural characteristics of autistic people. Her book is for anyone who is interested in learning more about autism, including families and friends of autistic people, doctors and therapists, and all those who work with them. It will also prove a source of inspiration to autistic people themselves.

Reviews
Jasmine is an intelligent, creative, mute autistic, who introduces us to the complexity of autism - the individuality, self-absorption, intensity and paradox. In a simple, clear and easy-to-understand style, she covers specific topics including emotions, communication and language, the teenage years and special traits. Throughout Jasmine presents the positive aspects of autism whilst acknowledging the enormous challenge of the outside world to people with autism. Jasmine describes with enthusiasm the joy than can be found in the special gifts that are part of the autistic personality and explains the confusion and distress that can be caused to people with autism by the chaos of the world and lack of understanding. Jasmine challenges us to see autism not as an illness or as a fault but as a uniqueness of personality which should be valued and respected for its strengths. She invites us to change our perception of autism and to accept and embrace its beauty and difference.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
