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.Joey.</blockquote>
