  Autism – that’s being able to count matches really fast and knowing that 7 August 1984 was a Tuesday, right? Well, no. In this book, Bianca Toeps explains in great detail what life is like when you’re autistic.She does this by looking at what science says about autism (and why some theories can go straight in the bin), but also by telling her own story and interviewing other autistics. Bianca talks in a refreshing and sometimes hilarious way about different situations autistic people encounter in daily life. She has some useful tips for non-autistic people too: what you should do if someone prefers not to look you in the eye, why it is sometimes better to communicate by email, and, most important of all, why it is not a compliment if you say: “But you don’t look autistic at all!”

  "Deviate: The Science of Seeing Differently" by Beau Lotto offers a revolutionary look at how we perceive the world. Lotto, a renowned neuroscientist, delves into the biology and psychology of perception, revealing that our brains are wired to see things based on past experiences and context, rather than reality itself. This insight challenges the conventional notion of objective observation and suggests that creativity and innovation stem from our ability to reinterpret our perceptions. 
  Through engaging stories and scientific research, Lotto illustrates how our perceptions are not just passive receptions but active constructions of reality influenced by our emotional and psychological state. For instance, the book discusses historical episodes and optical illusions to show how context and expectation shape our reality, highlighting the power of the brain to see things differently when we alter our perspectives. 
  At its core, "Deviate" encourages readers to question their assumptions and to recognize that by embracing uncertainty and reevaluating the familiar, we can unlock a wealth of creative potential. Lotto argues that understanding and challenging our perceptual biases can lead to a more fulfilling and adaptable existence, encouraging a shift from a fixed mindset to one that is open to new possibilities and change. 
  This summary encapsulates the essential teachings of Lotto's work, offering a concise overview for those looking to understand the complex interplay between perception and reality. Whether you're familiar with the original book or new to Lotto's ideas, this audio summary provides practical insights into how we can all begin to see the world differently and harness our innate creativity​​​​.

  In 1925 Adolfo ‘Babe’ Romo, a Mexican American rancher in Tempe, Arizona, filed suit against his school district on behalf of his four young children, who were forced to attend a markedly low-quality segregated school, and won. But Romo v. Laird  was just the beginning. Some sources rank Mexican Americans as one of the most poorly educated ethnic groups in the United States. Chicano Students and the Courts is a comprehensive look at this community’s long-standing legal struggle for better schools and educational equality. Through the lens of critical race theory, Valencia details why and how Mexican American parents and their children have been forced to resort to legal action.Chicano Students and the Courts engages the many areas that have spurred Mexican Americans to legal battle, including school segregation, financing, special education, bilingual education, school closures, undocumented students, higher education financing, and high-stakes testing, ultimately situating these legal efforts in the broader scope of the Mexican American community’s overall struggle for the right to an equal education. Extensively researched, and written by an author with firsthand experience in the courtroom as an expert witness in Mexican American education cases, this volume is the first to provide an in-depth understanding of the intersection of litigation and education vis-à-vis Mexican Americans.

  Queering Psychotherapy

  LGBTIQ+ people are more likely than cisgender and heterosexual individuals to suffer with mental health issues, yet often have poorer therapeutic outcomes. Mainstream Eurocentric psychotherapeutic theories, developed largely by heterosexual, cisgender and white theorists, tend to see LGBTIQ+ as a singular group through this "othered" lens. Despite the undeniable value offered by many of these theories, they and those who use them – queer therapists included – can often pathologize, marginalize, misunderstand and diminish the flourishing and diversity of queer experience.
  
  
  In this volume, editor and psychotherapist Jane C. Czyzselska speaks with practitioners and clients from diverse modalities and lived experiences, exploring and rethinking some of the unique challenges encountered in a world that continues to marginalize queer lives.
  
  
  The contributors to Queering Psychotherapy present key insights and practical advice in a dynamic conversational format, providing intimate access to therapists' personal and professional knowledge and reflections. This book is an invaluable training in itself.
  
  With contributions from Meg-John Barker, Anthea Benjamin, Kris Black, Sabah Choudrey, Jane Chance Czyzselska, Dominic Davies, Bay De Veen, Robert Downes, Paul Harris, Ellis J. Johnson, Gail Lewis, Amanda Middleton, Igi Moon, Charles Neal, Karen Pollock, Beck Thom, Valentino Vecchietti, Jake Yearsley, and Neil Young.
