FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Its time to remake the world - the ground-breaking book on what steps we should all be taking for the autistic people in our lives. The modern world is built for neurotypicals: needless noise, bright flashing lights, small talk, phone calls, unspoken assumptions and unwritten rules - it can be a nightmarish dystopia for the autistic population. In Untypical, Pete Wharmby lays bare the experience of being different, explaining with wit and warmth just how exhausting it is to fit in to a world not designed for you. But this book is more than an explanation. After a late diagnosis and a lifetime of masking, Pete is the perfect interlocutor to explain how our two worlds can meet, and what we can do for the many autistic people in our schools, workplaces and lives. The result: a practical handbook for all of us to make the world a simpler, better place for autistic people to navigate, and a call to arms for anyone who believes in an inclusive society and wants to be part of the solution. Author Biography Pete Wharmby is an ex-English teacher who has immersed himself in the world of autism advocacy since his diagnosis in 2017. He has a highly engaged Twitter following, a YouTube channel and a blog, and dedicates his efforts to improving the general publics understanding of autism.
