Book advice _and hello

Zafar

Hello all,

I'm a retired teacher and self diagnosed. Learning more about the condition and how it affects me.

Can anyone recommend any books that help with communication?

I'm considering getting these two books. However, couldn't find any info on the author. Could these be AI generated?

  • Hi Zafar,

    As a retired teacher myself, diagnosed 3 years ago, I would recommend;

    Unmasking Autism: Discovering the New Faces of Neurodiversity – Devon Price, PhD (2022)
    A landmark book on masking, identity, and late diagnosis, especially resonant for professionals re-evaluating their life and work through an autistic lens.

    Autism in Adults (Overcoming Common Problems) – Dr Luke Beardon (2021)
    Practical, myth-busting guidance for newly diagnosed adults, covering work, relationships, and everyday life with a neurodiversity-affirming approach.

    I found both invaluable and due to publication date, readily available second hand at lower cost than a certain online shop that generates the AI slop you found above.

    Good luck with your quest.  Any further questions, please feel free to message me.
