This is the story of Judith Dent, a girl growing up in the middle of the last century, completely blind as well as autistic, at a time when few people had even heard of autism. Judy, in her own words, was a child who could lie on the floor and scream until she turned blue from the sheer desperation of realizing she was different, not only from sighted children, but from other blind children. Her familyincluding a mother suffering from paranoid schizophreniawas unequipped and overwhelmed. Schools had no idea how to deal with her. How is it possible that Judith survived her early years, multiple suicide attempts and hospitalizations, finally achieving successas a woman and wife living in her own home and as a PhD graduate? She lacked sight, but she brought to her writings here an extraordinary eye and memory for detail that make it almost possible for the reader to experience her world and understand how she did it.

In Like Colour to the Blind, Donna Williams enters the most exposing and fragile realm of human interaction: her relationship and eventual marriage with someone with whom she can 'simply be', a relationship she terms a 'specialship'. But loving involves exposure, and to love she must expose the very things which protected her all her life - the masks she has hidden behind, the patchwork creations which stood in place of self. In Donna's relationship with Ian, a man with difficulties related to her own, we watch the two of them break through their rock-solid emotional barriers and dare to defy all the rules imposed by the autistic condition of 'exposure anxiety'. Their struggle is told with Donna's characteristic humour, insight and sense of fragility. Like Colour to the Blind is also the story of Alex, who was misdiagnosed as 'retarded' as well as autistic, and so gripped by 'exposure anxiety' that he has been virtually non-communicative all his life. Alex's fear of being left behind by Donna and Ian inspires him to push fiercely beyond the boundaries of his limitations and, in his own words, `to fly'.

The Classic Edition of this foundational text includes a new preface from Miguel Pérez-Pereira, examining how the field has developed since first publication. The volume provides an in-depth account of blind children's developing communicative abilities, with particular emphasis on social cognition and language acquisition from infancy to early school age. It provides insights into why the development of blind children may differ from that of sighted children and explores development of "theory of mind" and perspective taking in language learning. It also discusses the caregiver–child interaction, research on early intervention and practical strategies for blind children that can assist parents and practitioners. The up-to-date preface discusses recent neurological research and the comparison between the psychological development of visually impaired and autistic children. Language Development and Social Interaction in Blind Children continues to facilitate dialogue between those interested in the study of typically developing children and those interested in the development of children who are blind, and challenges some widely held beliefs about the development of communication in blind children.

LOVING INVOLVES EXPOSURE. It means relinquishing control and masks and conceding to the tentative, fragile, yet beautiful state of standing emotionally naked before another human being. Through the unique prism of Donna Williams, a woman with autism who learned to differentiate between and name her emotions for the first time in her mid-twenties, readers are taken on a journey through which they will view the universal experience of love in a wholly new way. Like Color to the Blind is about the struggle between the will and the mind, the joys and tribulations of recognizing a soul mate when you find one, the learning to share one's feelings on the path from friendship to marriage. In this astonishing new memoir, a woman who spent most of her life closing love out offers an intimate diary of the process of letting it in amid her ongoing struggle with autism. Donna chronicles her unconventional relationship with Ian, a man with difficulties similar to her own, and their efforts to break through their emotional and autistic barriers to admit and live with their feelings for each other. This book is also an insightful, gutsy, and often humorous commentary on the universal experience of discovering one's true self- learning to make choices based not on the opinions of others or media images, but on one's core values.

This book shows that since we have delegated the ability to read context to contextual technologies (social media, location, and sensors), we have become context blind. Since this is one of the most dominant symptoms of autistic behavior, people with autism may indeed be giving us a peek into our human condition soon.
