Animals in Translation: Using the Mysteries of Autism to Decode Animal Behavior by Temple Grandin

hopeful informative inspiring medium-paced

4.5

Animals in Translation was so interesting! Learned so much about animal behavior, human behavior, and autism. Everything in the book is extremely readable and divided into chapters that actually make sense. Some parts were difficult to stomach though, so do be warned. Temple Grandin's accomplishments towards animal welfare are fascinating and I have nothing less than the highest respect for her.

This book is already nearly 20 years old, so I have to wonder how much more we've discovered since it was written.

Still, if you can stomach a few graphic bits (the tone of the book is overall overwhelmingly positive!) this is a must-read.
