À propos de cet audio

 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.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"There are innumerable astounding facets to this remarkable book....Displaying uncanny powers of observation....[Temple Grandin] charts the differences between her life and the lives of those who think in words." ( The Philadelphia Inquirer)
"A uniquely fascinating view not just of autism but of animal - and human - thinking and feeling, [providing] insights that can only be called wisdom." (Deborah Tannen, author of You Just Don't Understand)

I learned that I'm autistic at the age of 35, and it turns out that I have more in common with Temple Grandin than most authors. For anyone who is neurodivergent themselves or knows someone who is autistic, this book will give you insight.

Just the book I needed to understand myself.

Never actually been diagnosed autistic, but knowing all the issues I had to deal with, after listening to this incredibly eye-opening audio book, I've been able to prove to myself that I truly am a high functioning autistic person.
I excelled in Math and science, but struggled terribly in English. My love for anything mechanical led me to becoming an Industrial Maintenance mechanic.
l loved everything I worked on and with also being a computer geek I easily was able to understand all the new automated machines.

Anyway, thanks to this wonderful book I now better understand my weirdness!!!!

so so informative!!!

This book has provided me with a entirely new set of insights on behaviour, and not just human behaviour. I loved her scientific approach to making links between her experience, the experience of many others, with that of other living creatures too. 🙏💙🤓🐃🐃🐂🐃🐴

Great insights on behaviour.
