They say I have Asperger’s

Bizarre? Awkward? Naïve? Selfish? Disrespectful of social rules, so much as to be considered spoilt and ill-mannered? Instead, they are people with Asperger’s syndrome. We still know little about it; in fact the boundaries between Asperger’s and high-functioning Autism are still blurred. Cases where the disorder is hazy however are not rare, those who are not experts can be fooled, convincing themselves that it is the anxious mother or the incompetent teacher who is «disturbed».

This book uses simple language with a solid scientific background. Free from jargon, it avoids the «long words» doctors use and starts with a story. In this way it gives readers the chance to wonder: how similar to my child is he?

The series I FEEL DIFFERENTLY is supervised by Paolo Cornaglia Ferraris

A series which explores the originality of the «Asperger» mind, a unique universe of artistic, literary, poetic, mnemonic, mathematical and relational expressions. The books in the series tackle some of the difficult issues related to this characteristic, using words which everyone can understand whilst not forgoing scientific rationale.
