Born with autism, Temple and Sean now famously live successful
social lives. However, their paths were quite different. Temple's
logical mind controlled her social behavior. She interacted with
many adults and other children, experiencing varied social
situations. Logic informed her decision to obey social rules and
avoid unpleasant consequences. Sean's emotions controlled his
social behavior. Baffled by social rules, isolated and friendless,
he made up his own, and applied them to others. When they
inevitably broke his rules, he felt worthless and unloved. Both
Temple and Sean ultimately came to terms with the social world and
found their places in it. Whether you are a person with autism, a
caregiver in the autism community, or just someone interested in an
outsider view of society, their powerful stories will enthrall and
enlighten you. This is the 2nd edition and the first edition of
Unwritten Rules of Social Engagement was the Silver Award Winner in
the 2005 ForeWord Book of the Year Awards!
