Finding Your Superpowers - A Guide for People on the Autism Spectrum and Their Allies

Beschreibung

Develop Your Autistic Superpowers!

Finding Your Superpowers intentionally mimics and uses popular images of superheroes. The book is a quick read with a fun and approachable format for a wide age range. The author has interviewed families and experts extensively, including talking/consulting directly with adults on the spectrum and has included examples, stories from individuals and families, as well as resources and further information resources in the text.

At the end of each chapter, the reader can note their discoveries. Through their individual strengths, autistic people can experience a positive and fulfilling life. The systems that surround neurodiverse people put more emphasis on the person’s “deficits” and/or “developmental delays,” rather than affirming those differences—often feeding low self-esteem, depression, and anxiety. This book is a guide to engaging or challenging these systems, and how to nurture each person’s superpowers. It is hard, but attainable.

Every autistic person is unique in their personal sensory experience, their personal traits, and the effects of autism they experience. The aim of this book is to help you and your allies discover and nurture your personal strengths—be they sensory abilities, personality traits or interests—to help you live a fuller and more satisfying life. Discovering and nurturing a person’s superpowers can bring meaning to life, a feeling of positive self-worth and a “path” for a person to follow in contributing to their family and community life—the goal of this book.

True Crime in the Civil War -...

Tobin T. Buhk

“Reconstruct[s] Civil War cold cases and crimes through the people who lived to tell about them . . . a unique history.”—MLive   “Crime did not take a holiday during the Civil War, far from it. As Tobin Buhk shows in this fast-paced narrative, the war created new opportunities to gain profits from illegal activities, to settle old scores against personal enemies under the cover of fighting the nation's enemies, to pillage, plunder, and murder amid the carnage and destruction that seemed to offer license to legitimize such crimes. Students of the Civil War will find new information in this readable account.” —James M. McPherson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Battle Cry of Freedom   This history of the rampant crime that took place in both the North and South amid the chaos of the American Civil War examines cases including currency counterfeiting; the tyrannical actions of Gen. Benjamin Butler; the murder of Gen. Earl van Dorn; the Detroit Draft Riot; the Rebel plot to burn New York City; raids by William Quantrill’s Bushwhackers; the Fort Pillow Massacre; the horrific prison conditions at Andersonville; the fate of the Lincoln assassination conspirators; and more.  Includes photographs
