Synopsis

For a friend, family member, or coworker with autism, communication can be challenging. But Connecting with the Autism Spectrum can help you find common ground with expert tips and helpful insights about talking (and listening) to neurodiverse adults so you can make your interactions more transparent, meaningful, and rewarding for all.

This comprehensive guide is a trusted source for understanding neurodiversity that features a brief introduction to the autism spectrum. It also provides easy communication strategies like active listening and positive encouragement as well as steps to avoid misunderstandings by teaching how to recognize biases and correct them.

● An easy approach—Discover the best ways to communicate with those living with autism.

● Situational success—Find the right information for various situations and settings, including school, work, and social relationships.

● A sensitive tone—Get valuable information from a clear, honest point of view that does not seek to "cure" or manipulate.

Learn how to communicate better with those on the autism spectrum with this informative book.

Overall I liked this book a lot. It's written by an autistic layperson for the average allistic (not autistic) person who might interact with us- either on the regular as part of our social or family circle, or even occasionally through work or casually in the community. It's written really accessib......more
