The author of the New York Times best-selling Look Me in the Eye returns to help Aspergians, and even ordinary geeks, embrace being different and fix the things that hold them back in life.

With his usual honesty, dry wit, and unapologetic eccentricity, John Robison argues that Asperger's is about difference, not disability. In this book he offers stories from his own life and from the lives of other Aspergians to give the listener a window into the Aspergian mind.

Equally important, he offers practical advice - to Aspergians, their parents, and educators - on how Asperians can improve the weak communication and social skills that keep them from taking full advantage of, or even recognizing, their often remarkable gifts.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I liked hearing his words in his voice, it made it seem very authentic

What insight do you think you’ll apply from Be Different?

Encouraging my son and his wife to find what they are good at, and being patient, since it may take a while!

Very Informative

Excellent book for those on the spectrum. I only hesitate to give it a full 5-stars because I'm not sure how much "nypicals" (as he calls them) would get out of it. Had quite a few "hey, me too!" moments with his meandering tales. I was pleasantly surprised by the cohesion of the stories.

If you're on the spectrum, you really should give it a read!

Laugh Out Loud Funny (if you're on the spectrum)

What did you love best about Be Different?

Be Different is an honest account of John Elder Robison's view of learning he's an aspie and how he managed to excel in a world before the diagnosis was conceivable. He provides hints and guides to other aspies which has been a blessing for me as a mother of an aspie.

What did you like best about this story?

The best part of this audio book is the honest account of his success.

Any additional comments?

God Bless you, John Elder Robison for bringing asperger's to light and provide insight on how to "treat" these individuals.

Always insightful.

It was as if the author had written on my life. Honest, relatable and comforting. To any teenager or youth struggling to fit in, it gets better. John Robison offers a window of what it truly feels like to be on the spectrum, as well as coping methods and a shift in perspective. After years of shame and hiding away, I am now proud to Be Different. Must read!

Wow, a true window into the Aspergian mind

As I was listening to this book, I could only picture Sheldon Cooper from the Big Bang Theory sitcom. The resemblances are very didactic, and it is simple to help you understand the world of aspergians. I not only recommend this book, but I am also reading his other book called 'Look me in the eye". This one is a fun and informative read\listen.

Great for everyone!

What did you love best about Be Different?

The wonderful reality that spectrum diagnoses may indeed be a gift (not a curse). When the gift is understood and then utilized the road may begin to look brighter than ever imagined.....

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Be different and
Stop thinking you have a disease!

Fresh optimistic perspective...No pity!
