Some facts and figures from the Autism Society, Bethesda, Maryland 1 percent of the population of children in the U.S., ages 3-17, have an autism spectrum disorder. 1 to 1.5 million Americans live with an autism spectrum disorder. Fastest-growing developmental disability; 10 - 17 percent annual growth. $60 billion annual cost, of which 60% are in adult services. Living Life with Autism: the World Through My Eyes is the story of Marc William Pulver, a middle-aged man, who had to wait 50 years to learn he had a disorder that placed severe limitations on the way he would be able to live his life. He knew he was different but didn't know why and seeking an answer became an obsession with him. Miraculously this knowledge had the opposite effect one might expect. Instead of allowing himself to withdraw or slip into depression, he became energized. Relieved to know that there was a reason for why he was who he was, he desperately wanted to tell his life's story to the whole world because he felt it would give hope to others afflicted with autism. Born a blue baby with severe physical and neurological developmental challenges, Marc describes in detail how he endured the grueling program of therapy prescribed for him by professionals at The Institutes for Achievement of Human Potential. He writes freely about his fears and fascinations growing up in a household with two older brothers, and describes the indignities suffered leaving the safety of familiar home surroundings to attend early childhood schooling experiences. The narrative goes on to reveal the difficulties of teenage life when you just don't fit in, have a problem relating to others, and find learning an arduous task. After high school graduation Marc describes what it was like living in the real world. He writes about some of his work experiences; and with humor born of naivete, describes traveling with his mother and father. Marc devotes the last part of his story to revealing how he felt when he first learned he was diagnosed with autism, and in what ways it changed his life.

In this eye-opening and heartfelt book of love and awareness, Jeannette and Luciano invites you to take a journey through Luciano's eyes, and experience how a day living with autism affects his world. For Luciano, life can have its challenges, especially when Gary gets overwhelmed! Luciano reacts differently to certain situations than other children do, and tries to cope with them as best as he can. When a person uses too many words, or a teacher corrects his answer, Gary experiences overload! And those are just some of the challenges Luciano faces daily...overload. Through it all Luciano desires to be understood. He knows he's smart, and looks like everyone else. He's also aware he has autism, and how that part of the brain impacts his day to day activities. Even though he faces these challenges, Luciano enjoys what most children his age does. He likes video games and sports after school, and his dog Josie, Luciano's best friend that helps to calm him down when he's overwhelmed. Luciano, and his mom Jeannette, wrote this book with the hopes that others will celebrate the gifts and talents that many children, just like Luciano, possess. They are passionate about helping others appreciate those with autism, and how patience, love, and understanding can help to create awareness, and make a difference in their lives and the world around them. Always remember, life is an adventure for all who believe they are unique.

'There isn't a secret manual outlining exactly how to get through your teens and young adulthood as an autistic individual, but this book provides a script for how to do what adulthood will make you do anyway, in a way that is most accessible for you". You've just received an autism diagnosis, so why do you still feel so lost when it comes to what autism actually means for you? Written by autistic advocate Sarah O'Brien, this book gives a much-needed introduction into what autism is and removes the myths, stereotypes and stigma that surround it. Sarah provides insights into what to do after diagnosis and how to approach and navigate the process of informing those in your life, from your family and friends to your teachers or manager at work. Utilising her own experience of feeling lost after diagnosis and navigating all of the 'firsts' of adolescence and young adulthood Sarah provides an honest and friendly voice to guide you through it all. Intelligent and clearly-written, this is the fact-led and information-rich resource that will answer your questions about autism, introduce you to your new community and set you up to thrive as an autistic adult.

“The diagnosis was one of the most significant things ever to happen to me. It was like finally finding a pair of shoes that fit, so I could start to walk forward in life with the right support at last.” Claire spent 30 years trying to 'fit in'. But constantly pretending to be just like everyone else placed an intolerable strain on her mental health. Then she discovered the truth: she was autistic. Autism is a gift, a blessing, if you (and the rest of society) understand, accept and manage it. But un-diagnosed and un-managed autism, or autism accompanied by mental health disorders, is a curse. You can fall through the net, desperately competing to fit into a world that was not built to accommodate you. Too Much World is a searingly honest autobiographical account of how Claire survives as an autistic girl: about friendship, mental health and the importance of empathy. It is an open door into one brain with remarkable differences. Differences that have been masked and hidden away... until now.

If your child or the child of a close friend or relative has just received a diagnosis of autism, you are probably feeling baffled and overwhelmed. It is never easy to learn that someone you love has serious health or developmental condition. Learning all you can about the disorder -- and where to get help -- will ease your fear and confusion. It can also provide the tools you need to find the support that children with autism and you really need. This is a story about a devoted father who searches for a way to his autistic son's heart: an unforgettable journey into the private life of a family dealing with autism. After the end of his first marriage, he is remarried to Nataly, the love of his life. When their beautiful baby boy, Uriel, is diagnosed with autism, their lives are changed forever. At first, the family is devastated, anxious and confused, but the complex situations they are faced with will teach them insightful lessons and change them forever, as a couple, as parents, and as human beings. As Danny narrates in his honest and passionate tone, that will melt your heart and touch your soul, the family suddenly finds itself struggling with inconsiderate institutes and indifferent bureaucracy; dealing with social ignorance, discrimination, and prejudice; coping with rejection, failure, frustration, anger, self-doubt, and despair; collecting small victories, weaving dreams and making the impossible come true. Exposing intimate and personal situations, reveals a powerful and exciting world that is usually left out of sight, and teaches voluble lessons that are relevant to all. Open your minds to an exceptional life story: prepare to laugh, cry, love, and believe. This story exposes the topic of autism and addresses the general issue of exceptional people and people with differences. It promotes openness to unique children and adults in our society and opens one's mind to see them as our equals, and not as a burden. It is an unforgettable journey for any reader, at any age.

In fact, it is quite the opposite, we are different, we do have many difficulties, but we have incredible skills and potential.Thinking about it, I come here, write this book, open up and reveal myself to the world and in this way, try to change this culture and bring a better quality of life for our autistic people.
