Description: An anthology of eight inspiring autobiographical journeys about living on the autism spectrum reveals remarkable success stories of academic achievements. This book challenges notions of institutionalization and abandonment for families with a child higher on the spectrum. The contributors' insights are evident of bright and successful individuals with best-selling books--refusing to let a diagnosis identify them--examples of strength and triumph any of us would be proud to call our own.
Notes: Includes index.
