About This Book
Autistic person and journalist Eric Garcia brings an insider's perspective and a reporter's eye to show that autism is a vital part of his community's humanity, not a disease that needs to be cured.
Reviews
"My main critique of his book is the lack of rigorous reporting or discussion of treatments for autism, especially alternatives to ABA."
"Even when he's covering intersections outside of his own experience, he lends credence and platform to the voices and experiences of autistic people—particularly autistic adults, who are massively underrepresented in research on and coverage of autism ..."
"Although he documents his sources clearly, there are sure to be readers who disagree with some of his arguments."
"Garcia's strength is his ability to potently mix policy analysis (he covers the pros and cons of Medicaid's Home and Community-Based Services Waivers, for example), reporting, and personal experience."
