Autistic people are empirically and scientifically generalized as
living in a fragmented, alternate reality, without a coherent
continuous self. In Part I, this book presents recent
neuropsychological research and its implications for existing
theories of autism, selfhood, and identity, challenging common
assumptions about the formation and structure of the autistic self
and autism's relationship to neurotypicality. Through several case
studies in Part II, the book explores the ways in which artists
diagnosed with autism have constructed their identities through
participation within art communities and cultures, and how the
concept of self as 'story' can be utilized to better understand the
neurological differences between autism and typical cognition. This
book will be of particular interest to researchers and scholars
within the fields of Disability Studies, Art Education, and Art
Therapy.
