Despite having wide impact on a variety of disciplines, neurodiversity and related concepts are often poorly understood, which can lead to uninformed debate and potential tensions between stakeholders regarding service provision for those with neuro-developmental disabilities. The Neurodiveristy Reader brings together work from pioneering figures within and beyond the neurodiversity movement to critically explore its history, the concepts of neurodiversity that have shaped it, lived experiences, and how a better informed understanding might be translated into practice and service provision. Through a variety of accounts, the relevance and criticisms of these concepts in understanding ourselves and one another are examined, as well as important implications for practice. A primary text for support professionals and students of neurodivergent experiences and disability, as well as neurodivergent people themselves.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49738871275793,"sku":"NGR9781912755394","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50450802901265,"sku":"GOR012685938","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50839855333649,"sku":"GOR012277867","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52607522570513,"sku":"NIN9781912755394","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ LIKE_NEW \/ SBYB","offer_id":52888795644177,"sku":"CIN1912755394LN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1912755394.jpg?v=1758880814"},{"product_id":"mismatch-of-salience-book-damian-milton-9781911028765","title":"A Mismatch of Salience","description":"A Mismatch of Salience brings together a range of Damian Milton's writings that span more than a decade. The book explores the communication and understanding difficulties that can create barriers between people on the autism spectrum and neurotypical people. It celebrates diversity in communication styles and human experience by re framing the view that autistic people represent a 'disordered other' not as an impairment, but a two-way mismatch of salience. It also looks at how our current knowledge has been created by non-autistic people on the 'outside', looking in. A Mismatch of Salience attempts to redress this balance.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49740046926097,"sku":"NGR9781911028765","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50800261923089,"sku":"GOR012444639","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51256821022993,"sku":"NIN9781911028765","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1911028766.jpg?v=1751282038"},{"product_id":"ten-rules-for-ensuring-miscommunication-when-working-with-autistic-people-and-pe-book-damian-milton-9781911028932","title":"Ten Rules for Ensuring Miscommunication When Working With Autistic People and People with Learning Disabilities","description":"This powerful booklet aims to challenge our thinking about the way we communicate and interact with autistic people and those with learning (intellectual) disabilities. The '10 Rules' concept sets out to be deliberately provocative, by suggesting ways in which people, services and environments can unconciously create problems and obstacles for those they seek to support.  Each communication 'rule' speaks powerfully with the voice of the individual on the receiving end of services and practice. Together, the 10 rules provide a useful starting point for discussion and a catalyst for action. Each is followed by suggestions for positive practice. The booklet also contains additional background information on good practice, together with references and sources of further information.  The booklet can be used for a range of purposes, including staff induction, awareness training, individual professional development and reflection, and discussions regarding service development and design.   It can be used by services, professionals and support workers, trainers, teachers, students and carers.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50726892110097,"sku":"GOR012270436","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1911028936.jpg?v=1750932206"},{"product_id":"routledge-international-handbook-of-critical-autism-studies-book-damian-milton-9780367521011","title":"The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Autism Studies","description":"This handbook provides an authoritative and up-to-date overview of Critical Autism Studies and explores the different kinds of knowledges and their articulations, similarities, and differences across cultural contexts and key tensions within this subdiscipline.  Critical Autism Studies is a developing area occupying an exciting space of development within learning and teaching in higher education. It has a strong trajectory within the autistic academic and advocate community in resistance and response to the persistence of autism retaining an identity as a genetic disorder of the brain.  Divided into four parts  • Conceptualising autism  • Autistic identity  • Community and culture  • Practice  and comprising 24 newly commissioned chapters written by academics and activists, it explores areas of education, Critical Race Theory, domestic violence and abuse, sexuality, biopolitics, health, and social care practices.  It will be of interest to all scholars and students of disability studies, sociology, anthropology, cultural studies, education, health, social care, and political science.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51001565806865,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51001568854289,"sku":"NIN9780367521011","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52110738096401,"sku":"NGR9780367521011","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52363911266577,"sku":"GOR014508456","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52531647840529,"sku":"NLS9780367521011","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0367521016.jpg?v=1750844780"},{"product_id":"double-empathy-reader-book-damian-milton-9781803882956","title":"The Double Empathy Reader","description":"The Double Empathy Reader brings together a substantial collection of work from leading researchers, theorists and practitioners, with first-hand accounts of neurodivergent people, to explore this growing area of study within the neurodiversity movement.  This comprehensive handbook explores Damian Milton's 'double empathy problem': the breakdown in mutual understanding that can happen between any two people yet is more likely to occur when people of differing dispositions attempt to interact. It challenges the traditional view that in exchanges between autistic and non-autistic people, this breakdown was simply the result of autistic people being inherently deficient in empathy. Thirteen years after the theory was first published, The Double Empathy Reader brings together an important volume of work to explore the research that has developed in that time as well as the many gaps in our understanding that still exist, with the aim to understand the potential of this theory to aid a reframing of autism itself and the radical change this could bring when considering best practice models for supporting autistic people in different settings. This title is the first in a new 'Readers in Neurodiversity' series, which follows Milton et al's The Neurodiversity Reader, first published in 2020. In keeping with this earlier collection, this new volume also explores how the concept of the 'double empathy problem' may be of use in wider theory and practice regarding neurodiversity.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51629683605777,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51629683835153,"sku":"NGR9781803882956","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1803882956.jpg?v=1754265652"},{"product_id":"routledge-international-handbook-of-critical-autism-studies-book-damian-milton-9780367521073","title":"The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Autism Studies","description":"This handbook provides an authoritative and up-to-date overview of Critical Autism Studies and explores the different kinds of knowledges and their articulations, similarities and differences across cultural contexts and key tensions within this sub-discipline.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52521300230417,"sku":"NLS9780367521073","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53013790261521,"sku":"NIN9780367521073","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780367521073.jpg?v=1760569170"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-damian-milton.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
