The Autistic Brain

The reason the age and year published help to place this is that the author has a more “practical” view (some circles might say “boomer”). It's very much oriented around succeeding in school/work and refers to “aspies” in Silicon Valley and loves the pattern, word, art, engineering sort of categories for people that have “ASD”. I find it hard to be enthralled with an “advocate” when they are mostly advocating for equal exploitation under jobs. It is a great discussion to talk about everyone's value, but it becomes a stunted discussion when it focuses on jobs/education (education that is geared towards jobs) over individuals rights to fit in a system that allows them to best function.
There's some interesting ideas, but, maybe just because of the time, none of them are exactly novel.
Not looking for an advocate to fawn over the engineering of an iphone design and touting the failure of iphone designs being that apple just didn't have the right “aspie” mixture working on any given project.

There is so much science packed in this book, I have to read it in short bursts. Lots of thought-provoking research and findings

Sound info, but old for 2022.
