The complete guide to connecting with adults on the autism spectrum - one of the 2021 Best Books on Autism…
from ChoosingTherapy.comFor 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.Written by Casey Vormer, a self-taught artist and autism advocate, 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. Additionally, you'll learn why the term "high functioning autism" is a misnomer to define members of this vibrant community."It's important to look at every autistic person individually and recognize their obstacles—but more importantly, we should acknowledge their skills and avoid labeling them with 'high functioning autism' or 'low functioning autism' altogether," Vormer says.Unlike other autism books, Connecting with the Autism Spectrum delivers: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 people.Learn how to communicate better with those on the autism spectrum with this informative book.

When Robert Hine's daughter, Elene, first showed signs of unhappiness as a little girl, no one dreamed she would grow…
up to have a serious personality disorder. As an early baby boomer, Elene reached adolescence and young womanhood in the midst of the counterculture years. Her father, a respected professor of American history at the University of California, shares the story of his family's struggle to keep Elene on track and functional, to see her through her troubles with delusions, medication, and eventually to help her raise her own children. Candid in its portrayal of the suffering Elene and her parents endured and the stumbling efforts of doctors and hospitals, Hine's story is also generous and inspiring. In spite of unimaginable difficulties, Elene and her father preserved their relationship and survived. My daughter has given me permission to go ahead with the effort, [but] I know she would react quite differently to many of the events. Where I felt sadness and dejection, she very likely felt release and exultation. Where I felt helplessness, she very likely felt in happy control. Where I saw confusion and delusion, she may well have seen purpose and steadiness. This is not the story she would tell. It is solely mine, solely the viewpoint of one man, solely a father's feelings about his daughter. - from Robert Hine's Preface to Broken Glass

The candid, inspiring story of a woman&’s experience with a chronic, unpredictable neurological condition When twenty-nine-year-old reporter Stacia Kalinoski regained…
consciousness on a couch at the TV station where she worked, she assumed that she&’d had another seizure. But the electrical storm that had just torn through her brain was more destructive than she could have imagined, and the broadcast journalism career she loved swiftly came to an end. Forced to confront the reality of her medical condition, Kalinoski made the risky decision to undergo brain surgery, targeting the epilepsy that was ravaging her life. In Racing Uphill, Kalinoski describes the seizures that occurred while she was running, which led to her pursuit of an uncertain cure. Rallying the grit she developed as an athlete and engaging the research and reporting skills she acquired as a journalist, she gives us a rare inside look at the ways epilepsy can change a life. Moving beyond her own personal experience, Kalinoski interviews prominent epileptologists to understand how seizures can spread, steal memories, and create strange behaviors and mood disorders. She seamlessly joins what she learned from her research with her own story, offering valuable insight into the experience of grappling with a relentless neurological disease. The vivid auras that preceded seizures and the damage that followed; the toll of her epilepsy on her family and loved ones; the extraordinary determination her reckoning required—these are all part of Kalinoski&’s story of adversity, denial, acceptance, and resilience. In sharing the remarkable opportunity that epilepsy presented for her courage and growth, Stacia Kalinoski speaks to anyone facing an uphill battle and offers inspiration for taking control of one&’s own health.

NAMED A BEST BOOK BY BOOK RIOT, AND MORE! • The incredible story of an all-deaf high school football team&’s…
triumphant climb from underdog to undefeated, their inspirational brotherhood, a fascinating portrait of deafness in America, and the indefatigable head coach who spearheaded the team, by New York Times reporter and Page One Correspondent, Thomas Fuller."The Boys of Riverside is another example of how anyone can achieve their dreams, making what appears impossible, possible.&” —Marlee Matlin, Academy Award winner"Remarkable"—Wall Street Journal • "Narrative nonfiction at its finest, filled with drama, detail and action."—Los Angeles Times • "Inspiring." —Parade.comIn November 2021, an obscure email from the California Department of Education landed in New York Times reporter, Thomas Fuller&’s, inbox. The football team at the California School for the Deaf in Riverside, a state-run school with only 168 high school students, was having an undefeated season. After years of covering war, wildfires, pandemic, and mass shootings, Fuller was captivated by the story of this group of high school boys. It was uplifting. During the gloom of the pandemic, it was a happy story. It was a sports story but not an ordinary one, built on the chemistry between a group of underestimated boys and their superhero advocate coach, Keith Adams, a deaf former athlete himself. The team, and Adams, tackled the many stereotypes and seemed to be succeeding. Fuller packed his bags and drove seven hours to the Riverside campus.The Boys of Riverside looks back at the historic 2021 and 2022 seasons in which the California School for the Deaf chased history. It follows the personal journeys of their dynamic deaf head coach, and a student who spent the majority of the season sleeping in his father&’s car in the Target parking lot. It tells the story of a fiercely committed player who literally played through a broken leg in order not to miss a crucial game, as well as myriad other heart-wrenching and uplifting narratives of players who found common purpose. Through their eyes, Fuller reveals a portrait of high school athletics, inspiring camaraderie, and deafness in America.

"This book reminds us of what we have in common: the power to create a good life for ourselves and…
for others, no matter what the world has in store for us." —Michael J. FoxThis book reveals that people with disabilities are the invisible force that has shaped history. They have been instrumental in the growth of freedom and birth of democracy. They have produced heavenly music and exquisite works of art. They have unveiled the scientific secrets of the universe. They are among our most popular comedians, poets, and storytellers. And at 1.2 billion, they are also the largest minority group in the world.Al Etmanski offers ten lessons we can all learn from people with disabilities, illustrated with short, funny, inspiring, and thought-provoking stories of one hundred individuals from twenty countries. Some are familiar, like Michael J. Fox, Greta Thunberg, Stephen Hawking, Helen Keller, Stevie Wonder, and Temple Grandin. Others deserve to be, like Evelyn Glennie, a virtuoso percussionist who is deaf—her mission is to teach the world to listen to improve communication and social cohesion. Or Aaron Philip, who has revolutionized the runway as the first disabled, trans woman of color to become a professional model. The time has come to recognize people with disabilities for who they really are: authoritative sources on creativity, love, sexuality, resistance, dealing with adversity, and living a good life.

Standing at the podium, Victor Villaseñor looked at the group of educators amassed before him, and his mind flooded with…
childhood memories of humiliation and abuse at the hands of his teachers. He became enraged. With a pounding heart, he began to speak of these incidents. When he was through, to his great disbelief he received a standing ovation. Many in the audience could not contain their own tears.So begins the passionate, touching memoir of Victor Villaseñor. Highly gifted and imaginative as a child, Villaseñor coped with an untreated learning disability (he was finally diagnosed, at the age of forty-four, with extreme dyslexia) and the frustration of growing up Latino in an English-only American school in the 1940s. Despite teachers who beat him because he could not speak English, Villaseñor clung to his dream of one day becoming a writer. He is now considered one of the premier writers of our time.

This book enables readers to confidently discuss and understand disability as part of the broader societal conversation on diversity, equity,…
and inclusion.The influence of mass media can raise awareness, educate, reduce stigma, facilitate advocacy related to disability, and activate attitude and behavior change. Recognizing that disability is a complex, multi-dimensional topic, this book presents case studies, original research, and practical applications related to society and cultural events about disability to highlight prominent issues related to diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. While previous work examined disability through activism or historical lenses, this book explores contemporary industry practices and how current conversations are driving trends in the field. Divided into three parts related to journalism and news reporting, strategic communication, and health communication, the book provides readers with the knowledge and skills to create conversation that gives space to disability and facilitates advancement in inclusion.Filling a void in disability literature, this book will be of interest to scholars as well as undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of health communication, journalism, strategic communication, media studies, disability studies, public health, and medical sociology.

The Psychology of Blindness and Visual Culture: Towards a New Ecological Model of Visual Impairment advances the debate regarding the…
inclusion and wellbeing of people with visual impairment (PVI) through looking at the psychological nature of visual culture and its effects on the lived experience. It explores whether it is possible to increase access to visual culture for PVI through language, alternative sensory data or contemporary communication media, and in so doing, questions whether or not communication and culture are intrinsically visual.Occupying a unique field of study by focusing on the understanding of visual culture and visual communication by PVI in real-world settings, this empirical book examines the difference between the understanding of visual culture and visual communication by PVI who acquire their visual impairments late in life and PVI who acquire their visual impairments early in life. Understanding these concepts not only helps us to understand how PVI feel socially included in visual culture, but also how culture and artifacts are conceptualized verbally, culturally and through the senses.It is compelling reading for advanced students of psychology and philosophy, and those studying learning in cultural settings, and in museum studies, computer science, disability studies, education and fine art management.

to create new ways of living in order to surviveLabeled "dyslexic and profoundly learning disabled with attention and behavior problems," Jonathan Mooney was a short bus rider—a derogatory term used for kids in special education and a distinction that told the world he wasn't "normal." Along with other kids with special challenges, he grew up hearing himself denigrated daily. Ultimately, Mooney surprised skeptics by graduating with honors from Brown University. But he could never escape his past, so he hit the road. To free himself and to learn how others had moved beyond labels, he created an epic journey. He would buy his own short bus and set out cross-country, looking for kids who had dreamed up magical, beautiful ways to overcome the obstacles that separated them from the so-called normal world.In The Short Bus, his humorous, irreverent, and poignant record of this odyssey, Mooney describes his four-month, 35,000-mile journey across borders that most people never see. He meets thirteen people in thirteen states, including an eight-year-old deaf and blind girl who likes to curse out her teachers in sign language. Then there's Butch Anthony, who grew up severely learning disabled but who is now the proud owner of the Museum of Wonder. These people teach Mooney that there's no such thing as normal and that to really live, every person must find their own special ways of keeping on. The Short Bus is a unique gem, propelled by Mooney's heart, humor, and outrageous rebellions.

In diesem Open-Access-Buch wird die Coronapandemie in besonderen Wohneinrichtungen der Eingliederungshilfe im sozialwissenschaftlichen Blick erfasst. Die Lagebeschreibung spiegelt verschiedene Perspektiven:…
die Einschätzungen von Menschen mit Beeinträchtigungen, Leitungsverantwortlichen, Fachpersonal und Angehörigen. Die Daten wurden bundesweit während der Lockdown-Phasen in einer qualitativen Feldstudie erhoben. Die Analyse folgt den Rahmungen der ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health der WHO) und der Behindertenrechtskonvention der Vereinten Nationen (UN-BRK). Faktenbasiert zeigen sich fehlende Brücken zwischen den Handlungsfeldern Gesundheit und Soziales. Im demografischen Wandel bleibt Wohnen in Gesundheit über die Pandemie hinaus ein drängendes Zukunftsthema. Die WoGe-Studie bietet Ansätze zur konstruktiven Auseinandersetzung mit ungleichen Versorgungschancen in Gleichstellung, Teilhabe und Gesundheitssorge. Durch den Blick hinter die Kulissen öffnen sich Lernoptionen und zeigen sich Handlungsnotwendigkeiten bei Risiken der Fremdbestimmung, erheblichen Personalengpässen und anhaltendem Kräfteverschleiß. Auch Bedarfe an mehr Gesundheitsbewusstsein und Präventionsorientierung werden aufgezeigt.

not a psychological condition. This is the revolutionary discovery Marcia Zimmerman made during her ten years of research as a nutritional biochemist. That conclusion led her to develop a diet that addresses the specific needs of the 17 million adults and children suffering from ADD. Her easy-to-follow thirty-day plan has been proven just as effective as Ritalin in relieving the symptoms of ADD. Learn: - How women should boost their nutrition before conception to prevent ADD in their children.- Why boys are much likelier to be tagged as ADD than girls- How to get a reliable ADD diagnosis - The effects of brain allergies on attention span- Foods to avoid that may exacerbate ADD- The dangers of artificial food ingredients- and much moreThis important book will help us curb the epidemic growth of ADD in this country and change the way we treat those who have it now by addressing its source instead of merely treating its symptoms."This book is must reading for every parent, physician, teacher and school nurse who deals with ADD and AD/HD children. ADD is not caused by a deficiency of Ritalin. Marcia Zimmerman's The A.D.D. Nutrition Solutionis right on target!" -- Bernard Rimland, Ph.D., director of the Autism Research Institute, San Diego
