Unmasking Autism: Discovering the New Faces of Neurodiversity by Devon Price
5.0
I love Dr. Devon Price so much. His voice is clear and informative without being too clinical or dense. As with his other books, I love that Price centers the voices of people often left out of the conversation: women and girls with Autism (and how the ways in which both are socialized may make their Autism either undiagnosed or misdiagnosed), as well as queer folks and people of color (who have to negotiate between the ways in which the world discriminates against them and how their presentation of Autism will be perceived).
I was formally diagnosed with Autism at the age of 41, four months after my 5 year old son was diagnosed. I truly value the depth of this book as I begin my own unmasking journey. I always recommend this as a great place to start for anyone seeking to learn more about Autism.
