Martian in the Playground: Understanding the Schoolchild with Asperger's Syndrome (Lucky Duck Books)

This award winning book illuminates what it means to be a person who has Asperger’s Syndrome by providing a window into a unique and particular world. Drawing on her own experience of schooling, and that of a network of friends and correspondents who share her way of thinking and responding, Clare Sainsbury reminds us of the potential for harm which education holds for those who do not fit. This book holds insights that take us beyond the standard guidance on how to manage autistic spectrum disorder.
