Great Inclusive and Informative book

Revisado: 02-22-23

I went into this book knowing I was neurodivergent, albeit not exactly how, and looking for some help in sorting out the issues I have because of my brain and the issues I have because of how my brain has been formed by the ableism and trauma around me. This did a great job at helping me sort out my own understanding of myself, my understanding of other experiences, how I can be more understanding of others and myself, and what steps to take for myself. The exercises throughout the book build on each other and thanks to the examples provided were easy to accomplish with a little thinking.

While this book doesn’t focus on neuroscience (which is not what it was advertised as) it does give a great societal background from a variety of perspectives. I came out of this book knowing more about varied human experience than I did going in and that’s more than worth the time for me, even if I hadn’t also learned more about myself which I did. If you enjoy learning by listening to examples and other people’s experiences this will be a great book for you! This book is also expressly queer and poc minded when suggesting steps giving it an awesome intersectional approach that made me feel more comfortable with the text as a whole.
