A comprehensive introduction into how the autistic community is treated and interacts with various parts of American culture and society. The first few chapters were very big picture themes, which were harder for me to get into. The organization of the book didn’t seem to flow well throughout, but I understand why it was organized that way. I think this would have been better in print than audiobook, however.
