Pro-autism resource books

telephonoscope:

I went to the college library yesterday and looked at their tiny little section on autism. Everything was curebie. I notified them that that was not a good thing and now they want me to recommend books to them!

my list starts with

Loud Hands

The new ASAN book about navigating college

Aspergirls (It is helpful if you ignore the problematic things in it.)

Any other recommendations?

What was the name of that Autism and sexuality book?

Women From Another Planet


A couple I like that are mixed people who want a cure and don’t:

Sharing Our Wisdom
Autism and the Myth of the Person Alone


There’s more but I’m too tired to check my bookshelf. Lots more actually. I collect books by autistic people and my collection is enormous.
