Histoire
As with his previous best seller, The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, in An Anthropologist on Mars Oliver Sacks uses case studies to illustrate the myriad ways in which neurological conditions can affect our sense of self, our experience of the world and how we relate to those around us. Writing with his trademark blend of scientific rigour and human compassion, he describes patients such as the colour-blind painter or the surgeon with compulsive tics that disappear in the operating theatre - patients for whom disorientation and alienation but also adaptation are inescapable facts of life.

Histoire
Imaginative and insightful, Seeing Voices offers a way into a world that is, for many people, alien and unfamiliar - for to be profoundly deaf is not just to live in a world of silence but also to live in a world where the visual is paramount. In this remarkable book, Oliver Sacks explores the consequences of this, including the different ways in which the deaf and the hearing impaired learn to categorise their respective worlds - and how they convey and communicate those experiences to others.

A brilliant and utterly original thinker, Andrew Solomon's journey began from his experience of being the gay child of straight parents. He wondered how other families accommodate children who have a variety of differences: families of people who are deaf, who are dwarfs, who have Down syndrome, who have autism, who have schizophrenia, who have multiple severe disabilities, who are prodigies, who commit crimes, who are transgender.

Histoire
Hailed as a medical classic, and the subject of a major feature film as well as radio and stage plays and various TV documentaries, Awakenings by Oliver Sacks is the extraordinary account of a group of 20 patients. Rendered catatonic by the sleeping-sickness epidemic that swept the world just after the First World War, all 20 had spent 40 years in hospital - motionless and speechless; aware of the world around them but exhibiting no interest in it - until Dr Sacks administered the then-new drug L-DOPA, which caused them, temporarily, to awake from their decades-long slumber.
Description
In this unprecedented book, Grandin delivers a report from the country of autism. Writing from the dual perspectives of a scientist and an autistic person, she tells us how that country is experienced by its inhabitants and how she managed to breach its boundaries to function in the outside world.
What emerges in Thinking in Pictures is the document of an extraordinary human being, one who, in gracefully and lucidly bridging the gulf between her condition and our own, sheds light on the riddle of our common identity.
Commentaires
"A uniquely fascinating view not just of autism but of animal - and human - thinking and feeling, [providing] insights that can only be called wisdom." (Deborah Tannen, author of You Just Don't Understand)

Interesting look Inside Autism
I got this book on a whim, a friend of mine had mentioned it during a long discussion about how being sociopaths probably succeed more in business. I don't know how we got to discussing that..
Anyway. Back to this book.
Temple Grandin clearly and eloquently describes what it is like to be autistic, and how her mind works. She is able to describe it well enough that I feel like I can fairly well wrap my head around autism, and what it must be like.
I always wondered if I was a little aspergerish, but after I read this book, I realized that I'm not. I'm just anti-social and introverted. Not all the time though, don't worry. I can still party like a rockstar.
The latter half of this book gets pretty technical, and starts to talk about autism, various treatments, education, upbringing, etc. It seems a bit like an owner's manual for autism, which isn't as interesting to me, which is why I knocked it down a star.
The first part of this book, however, is fantastic, and if you are at all interested in finding out what it is like to experience the world with autism, check out this book.

Great book & well read
An interesting book that was written by an autistic person who miraculously earned a doctorate and now sports a long list of accomplishments in the cattle industry and is quite famous. The book talks in detail about what it’s like to be autistic as told by a person who considers herself bridging both worlds. ..strangely it is also about cows. There is a lot of credible information about both to be sure! I give it a four out of five simply because the last part of the book reveals some strange perceptions about God and religion but she wraps it up nicely after that.

Scientific, informative, and enlightening!
Temple Grandin is one of the most influential people in the world, elected by Times magazine in 2010. If you want to get information about autism, this is the first book you should read. It is a wonderful book. Another thing you should know is that you will not absorb everything in one listening / sitting. You will have to listen to it at least three times. It contains a lot of useful and clarifying information. I highly recommend it!

A must read!
This is a great book, as is Grandin's "How Animals Make Us Human". I highly recommend them both for the pleasure of reading, and the knowledge of yourself and the world outside of yourself that you can gain.
Reading this book gave me insight into how my mind works, although I do not have autism. Grandin's braveness in facing and mastering an understanding of the brain that makes her unique gave me a higher appreciation for the differences in each of us. I can see how my own way of thinking both helps and limits me, and I can see ways I can try to improve and strengthen my brain's abilities.

What you SHOULD know about autism
When I started this audiobook, I didn't have very much knowledge about autism. This book gave me a clear idea of what it's like to have autism and debunks common misconceptions about it. She also relates her experience to that of people without autism. If you're trying to gain a greater understanding of this topic, I highly recommend this audiobook.

Gives a glimpse into an autistic person's thinking
If you could sum up Thinking in Pictures in three words, what would they be?
Insight
Autism
Perspective
What other book might you compare Thinking in Pictures to and why?
The closest comparison I have is the fiction work, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, because it, too, gives the reader insight into how the mind of a person on the autism spectrum thinks.
Have you listened to any of Deborah Marlowe’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have not, so cannot make a comparison.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
A Different Perspective on the World
Any additional comments?
This book gives the reader an interesting perspective into how the mind of one high-functioning person on the autism spectrum works. The concept of "thinking in pictures" was new to me, but it helped me understand this way of thinking. The author includes research information that has been updated since the first edition of the book, which helps keep it current with progress in the field. This book is helpful for teachers, parents, and others who wish to better understand the unique ways that persons with autism think.

Her openness
Have you listened to any of Deborah Marlowe’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Introspective story from highly self aware person
Any additional comments?
This is not a story but a documentary of how it is to live and think as a non-verbal visual person. Very helpful in getting outside of oneself and understanding life from a very unique perspective.

Good information
There is some good information, but the narration was boring and robotic. Not recommended as an audio book, probably much better to read and use as a reference. There was much more clinical information than I expected.
