thinkingautism.bsky.social Steve Silberman Iβve said it before: To read Neurotribes was to experience an act of transformation. A book you start as a caterpillar, a book you finish as a butterfly. Iβm so grateful to him for illuminating the ways to growth, change and community.
It's finally here! I'm so proud of this book. Massive thanks to Professor Dawn Mannay and Ali Roy for excellent editorial collaboration (I still miss our meetings), to all the wonderful contributors, and to Policy Press for supporting us all through the process. #CRMethods
