| Description: | Select Guide Rating By providing an eloquently written insight into the world of PDA, Thompson's memoir gives invaluable information to those looking to expand their knowledge of the autism spectrum. It covers his experiences of finishing school, holding down a job and forging meaningful relationships. Turbulent at times, it ends on a note of hope and positivity.
