 Full Description: 
In this clear and accessible introduction to Autism, Durig provides a host of ideas and examples that enable the reader to understand the phenomenon, recognize different kinds of "autistic" perception and behavior,and prepare for interaction with people who have Autism. To help "normal" people understand and lose their fear of Autism, Durig discusses the notions of "slight" Autism, being or becoming "Autism-friendly," and the mental well-being of people who have Autism. In describing how the world looks and feels through the eyes of a person with Autism, the author explains how "autistic" perception works and how it leads to behaviors considered to be "autistic."
