Unmasking Autism

Discovering the New Faces of Neurodiversity.

For every openly Autistic person, there are countless others who mask—suppressing their natural behaviors and adopting a neurotypical facade just to survive in a world that doesn't accommodate them. 

In Unmasking Autism, Dr. Devon Price draws from personal experience, scientific research, and powerful stories from the Autistic community to illuminate the inner lives of those who have long gone unseen. He shows how masking not only leads to burnout and identity confusion but also disproportionately affects people who are already marginalized—by race, gender, sexuality, class, and more.

This book is both a manifesto and a guide: a call to honor the full humanity of Autistic individuals, and a practical roadmap for unmasking—for finding one’s true self and learning to live with confidence, compassion, and authenticity.
