I helped me understand even more about an individual with a specific type of autism. Temple's struggle and persistence in figuring out a way to cope with her feelings and day to day life is something to admire. This book is great to have children who are unfamiliar with disabilities is great to open them up to the world utterly different of their own. This book motivates and inspires the reader never to give up and believe in yourself, even if no else does. Temple Grandin is a fascinating person. As with all her writing, there are a lot of interesting facts. She has a unique perspective, being a well-spoken autistic adult. It's a dense book, but interesting. My problem with all her writings is that opinions and facts are often meshed together and I don't always agree with her opinions. Also, many times she makes general statements about autism based on her own experiences, and a lot of these general statements are not true to my personal experience. 3.5 stars Temple Grandin is autistic, and grew up to earn a PhD in animal science. This book is an autobiography combined with information on autism, with plenty of animal anecdotes thrown in, as well. This was good. No question my interests are more in line with the animal portions of the book, but the autistic information was interesting, as well. I was particularly interested in Temple's own childhood and how she thinks in pictures (hence the title) – some autistics do that, but not all. She included plenty of psychological and scientific information on autism, in addition to the anecdotes from her own life (and the lives of other autistics she knows or has heard from), as well as advice for parents of children with autism. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Her visual thinking helped her relate to animals. I recommend the HBO movie also, which is really good, called Temple Grandin. ( )
