c2005. By Temple Grandin, Ph.D., with Catherine Johnson, Ph.D. The author, a successful animal scientist and lecturer who has autism spectrum disorder (ASD), has studied and worked with animals for over 40 years. It is her view that ASD helps her think the way that animals think, and as a result she has strived to become as knowledgeable about neuroscientific research as she has about animal behavior. In this book, she tells compelling and enlightening stories about the differences between animals and people in the areas of perception, emotions, pain and suffering, and ways of thinking, and her personal narrative is interwoven with insights about how ASD also affects human functioning in these areas. She discusses behavior pertaining to a wide range of animal species, and she provides specific behavior tips and a valuable behavior and training troubleshooting guide. Drawing from research in biology, genetics, neuroscience, psychology, and other disciplines, this fascinating book will be of tremendous interest to readers who want to learn more about animals, neuroscience, and ASD. (Softcover; 358 pages.)
