OverviewThe author tells us upfront that this is not a book about Asperger's but more a look back into his childhood and youth following his diagnosis in an effort to make sense of it in the context of his life. He was always told he was different and so he delves into his memories of growing up in the 1960s and 70s Australia when autism and Aspergers were virtually unheard of. That Mike had difficulties with relationships was clear, but this special book is not sad or troubled; it is a beautiful account of a young man's development in a world that was very accepting of unconventional behavior such as his. Indeed it was what marked the post-WWII generation, which is, I imagine, why no one pointed out to him that his responses to emotions and situations were anything other than occasionally 'lacking in compassion' or 'empathy'.
