What makes the Asperger child immerse himself in such things as
Doctor Who and The Incredible Hulk? In this honest and entertaining
autobiographical account, Will Hadcroft links his obsessive TV
series fixations to eventually being diagnosed with Asperger
Syndrome. He describes drawing comfort from identifying himself
with heroic individuals or fictional characters, and the liberating
effect of an accurate diagnosis for someone who felt 'out of place'
and didn't know why. This original and highly readable book offers
a fresh insight into the experience of feeling 'unmutual', or
misunderstood and how this can result in bullying at school and in
the workplace, escalating into social phobia, paranoia and
obsessive behaviour. It amply illustrates some of the more subtle
expressions of the Asperger condition and provides an accessible
introduction to those new to AS.
