  • MARTIAN IN THE PLAYGROUND
    CLARE SAINSBURY
    `This deceptively little book contains more truth and provides more insight into what it is like to have Asperger′s Syndrome than many a weighty tome on the subject.

Instead she sets out obser...

  • DEAF WORLDS
    SALLY SAINSBURY
    In the 1980s deaf people were grossly neglected by our society, and little attempt was made, either by the public or the policy makers, to understand their needs. Because few deaf people can communicate by speech, and because they are barred from all the information networks which rely on sound, they led separate and largely invisible lives. Originally published in 1986, this b...
