Scholars with autism achieving dreams

by Lars Perner

An anthology of eight inspiring autobiographical journeys about living on the autism spectrum reveals remarkable success stories of academic achievements. This book challenges notions of institutionalization and abandonment for families with a child higher on the spectrum. The contributors' insights are evident of bright and successful individuals with best-selling books--refusing to let a diagnosis identify them--examples of strength and triumph any of us would be proud to call our own.
