Books

They told me not to read too much too soon, I ignored them :) Highlights:

*The Autistic Brain* - Temple Grandin - Heavily science based, I felt like I was a neurosurgeon afterwards. She is a pioneer in the field and autistic herself.
*Autism in adults* - Dr Luke Beardon - Good intro book. Covers research, coping, skills and testimony. He was the Dr in the Chris Packham BBC doc.
*Embracing late adult Autism* - Susanna Kingston - I gave this to my parents its a management summary, with skills, coping strategies and its written well.
*The complete guide to Asperger's syndrome* - Tony Attwood - Not read it yet but was on the reading list given to me from assessors.
*Neurotribes* - Steve Silberman - I love this I've not been able to put it down. Its big. Focus on legacy, how to think smarter about people who think different.
*Unmasking autism* - Dr Devon price - It was a good book but It didn't grab me. Lots of good bits independently, It just didn't grab me all the way through.
*Thinking persons guide to Autism* - It was too anecdote and essay based I couldn't get into it (maybe I should have read the cover first).
*Very late diagnosis of Asperger's syndrome* Philip Wylie - This book changed my life, that's a bit dramatic I've read it twice already, just so relatable.
*An adult with an Autism diagnosis* - Gillian Drew - I liked this one. It was following his journey but it was told in an extremely relatable way.

There's a few others but I cant find them ... hope that's helpful.
