Temple Grandin, Ph.D., is a gifted animal scientist who has designed one third of all the livestock-handling facilities in the United States. She also lectures widely on autism—because Temple Grandin is autistic, a woman who thinks, feels, and experiences the world in ways that are incomprehensible to the rest of us.
In this unprecedented book, Grandin delivers a report from the country of autism. Writing from the dual perspectives of a scientist and an autistic person, she tells us how that country is experienced by its inhabitants and how she managed to breach its boundaries to function in the outside world. What emerges in Thinking in Pictures is the document of an extraordinary human being, one who, in gracefully and lucidly bridging the gulf between her condition and our own, sheds light on the riddle of our common identity.

是96版的更新版本,读完最后宗教一章只觉得她非常温柔,虽然温柔可能感觉上跟她这种完全靠逻辑推演生活的人三杆子打不着,但还是觉得她好温柔。她作为一个因为想要对动物更好所以毕生投身于设计禽畜屠宰系统的有坚定宗教信仰的自闭症学者真是太酷了jvj

大多数人不知道的自闭症人群的世界。不过书比想象中的更学术化。
