Description

 							
  
  A
groundbreaking book that upends conventional thinking about autism and suggests a broader model for acceptance,
understanding, and full participation in society for people who think differently.
   
  What is autism? A
lifelong disability, or a naturally occurring form of cognitive difference akin to certain forms of genius? In truth, it
is all of these things and more—and the future of our society depends on our understanding it. WIRED reporter
Steve Silberman unearths the secret history of autism, long suppressed by the same clinicians who became famous for
discovering it, and finds surprising answers to the crucial question of why the number of diagnoses has soared in recent
years.
   
  Going back to the earliest days of autism research and chronicling the brave and lonely journey
of autistic people and their families through the decades, Silberman provides long-sought solutions to the autism
puzzle, while mapping out a path for our society toward a more humane world in which people with learning differences
and those who love them have access to the resources they need to live happier, healthier, more secure, and more
meaningful lives.
   
  Along the way, he reveals the untold story of Hans Asperger, the father of
Asperger’s syndrome, whose “little professors” were targeted by the darkest social-engineering
experiment in human history; exposes the covert campaign by child psychiatrist Leo Kanner to suppress knowledge of the
autism spectrum for fifty years; and casts light on the growing movement of “neurodiversity” activists
seeking respect, support, technological innovation, accommodations in the workplace and in education, and the right to
self-determination for those with cognitive differences.
   
  PRAISE
  “Ambitious,
meticulous and largehearted history…NeuroTribes is beautifully told, humanizing, important.”
 
—The New York Times Book Review
  
  “Mr. Silberman has surely written the definitive book about
[autism’s] past.” 
  –The Economist 
  
  “A comprehensive history of the
science and culture surrounding autism studies…an essential resource.” –Nature magazine
  

 “NeuroTribes is a sweeping and penetrating history, presented with a rare sympathy and sensitivity. It is
fascinating reading; it will change how you think of autism, and it belongs, alongside the works of Temple Grandin and
Clara Claiborne Park, on the bookshelf of anyone interested in autism and the workings of the human brain.”
 
— From the foreword by Oliver Sacks, author of An Anthropologist On Mars and Awakenings
   
 
“The monks who inscribed beautiful manuscripts during the Middle Ages, Cavendish an 18th century scientist who
explained electricity, and many of the geeks in Silicon Valley are all on the autism spectrum. Silberman reviews the
history of autism treatments from horrible blaming of parents to the modern positive neurodiversity movement. Essential
reading for anyone interested in psychology.”
  –Temple Grandin, author of Thinking in Pictures and
The Autistic Brain
   
  “NeuroTribes is remarkable. Silberman has done something unique: he’s
taken the dense and detailed history of autism and turned the story into a genuine page-turner. The book is sure to stir
considerable discussion.”
  –John Elder Robison, Neurodiversity Scholar in Residence at The College of
William & Mary and author of Look Me in the Eye
   
  “This gripping and heroic tale is a brilliant
addition to the history of autism.”
  –Uta Frith, Emeritus Professor of Cognitive Development at
University College London
   
  “In this genuine page-turner, Steve Silberman reveals the untold history
of autism: from persecution to parent-blaming, from Rain Man to vaccines, of doctors for whom professional ego trumped
compassion, to forgotten heroes like Hans Asperger, unfairly tainted by Nazi links. It ends on an optimistic note, with
‘autistics’ reclaiming the narrative and defining autism in their terms — more difference than
disability and an essential part of the human condition. Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in autism or
Asperger’s, or simply a fascination with what makes us tick.”
  –Benison O’Reilly,
co-author of The Australian Autism Handbook
