Wow! What a great book this is. I am only 30 pages into it and I have learned so much already. I would love to know anyone elses opinion of this book. I will be reading this one slow and taking notes. Join in.

I plan on reading it. I will put it on my priority list then. I am such a nerd. I have a big list of books to read.

I am reading in the book about Temple Grandin. She explains herself as being more logical than emotional. Its almost like being Mr Spok on Star Trek. How cool, not to let your emotions get in the way of decision making. I almost envy her. I don't want to make her sound like a person with no feelings, she does have them, but her brain is wired differently. She is very work driven and she experiences much joy from her work. She has expressed that her work is her life, it is who she is.

I pretty much have enjoyed everything written by Temple Grandin. She is one of my autism heroes.

I read Sean Barron's book, There is a Boy in Here, that he co-wrote with his mom and it was so insightful.....I'm sure this new collaboration is good and I'm going to see if I can borrow it from my local ASA chapter. Thanks for the recommendation.
