Beschreibung

The author of "Pretending to Be Normal" looks with wisdom and humor at the implications Asperger Syndrome has for her family, both the Aspie and non-Aspie members. Willey and one of her daughters have been diagnosed with AS, a neurological disorder which has sometimes been referred to as high-functioning autism.
