Good information

This audiobook has very good information. I think it would be easier for me to retain if it were a tiny bit slower paced. Also, I hoped it had more concrete advice about how parents can be interfacing in treatment plans, of adult ASD patients., particularly in adulthood diagnosis as opposed to childhood diagnosis.

Good book

Definitely worth listening to, even if it's just to understand people with Asperger's better if you ever come across someone who has that.

Good introduction and overview.

I'm very early into my exploration of Aspergers Syndrome and Autism, so I found this book useful.

However, if you already know the basics and have a foundation of understanding, may not find much if any new info here.

Quality of the Recording: Pleasant enough female narrator. Slow and neutral voice. Sounds like a forced trained slow calm cadence so comes across as unnatural and robotic, but not offensive or distracting beyond the first min or two.

Awesome

You need this book if you want to learn anything about this topic. NO joke! I got this book for free, but it's only a few bucks, I mean, come on.

Interesting book

Definitely an interesting cover. I wouldn't consider all people with Asperger's to make funny faces like that. But I get it.

So here is my analysis:

This is an excellent book for those who aren't familiar with the syndrome. It's one of those books that gives you all the basic information and much more. Therefore, I gave it 5 stars, and for good reasons. The author is totally sympathetic towards those with Asperger's, although I can also sense, if I'm not wrong, that he doesn't have it himself but instead, has dealt with those who do. For that reason and others, I consider this a great way to become familiar with it. The narrator was nice too. No complaints. She's professional.

Good narrator

The pronunciation of the words in this particular book was fantastic, in addition to all the info contained in it. Based upon that, I am happy that I bought the book. It was well worth my time.

Nice

I understand why this had a bunch of 5 star reviews. It's truly a good book to listen to. That's all I have to say about it.

Exspensive informational pamphlet

The contents may as well be an informational pamphlet that the doctor hands out. It sounds like it was read in the bathroom with a laptop microphone instead of anything professional. the voice actress has an unnatural way of reading things. Listening to this was one painful hour.

Great book for basic info

Good book for someone looking for basic info on Aspergers. Someone living or working with someone with Aspergers would want to know more.
