Thinking in Pictures

My Life with Autism (Expanded Edition).

First published in 1995, this groundbreaking book presents an unprecedented perspective: Temple Grandin writes as both a scientist and a person with autism, offering an insider’s view of a world rarely understood from within.

In her vivid and deeply personal account, Grandin introduces a revolutionary framework for understanding how people think—especially those who, like her, process the world visually rather than verbally.

This anniversary edition features a new afterword by Grandin, reflecting on the latest research in autism, including revised diagnostic criteria, advancements in genetics, and practical advice for working with children and young adults on the spectrum.
