Opis

With a desire to see more of the world, Martin and his wife Wendy plan and set out to take a trip around Scotland. But being autistic is never easy as fear and uncertainties plague the mind of someone who needs a constant feeling of safety and familiarity just to be able to function. In this book Martin gives us a look what goes on inside his brain while trying to plan for every possible scenario and execution this trip. While being on the road, Martin not only discovers a country he had never seen before and learns to drive 'the other way around', he also suddenly connects and involves himself with other people, every-day politics and, as only an Autist can, lays his finger on likely problems Scotland will face in the future, all the while rediscovering pieces of himself that he had never known he had or had missed. 'An Autist view of Scotland' is a must-read for people with autistic children and a desire to roam further than the local supermarket, or deal with Autism themselves on a day-to-day basis. This book really has something for everyone.
