If you only buy one book to improve your life this year, make it this one. Temple Grandin, Liane Holliday Willey, Anita Lesko, Stephen M. Shore, and many other Aspie mentors, offer their personal guidance on coping with the daily stressors that Aspies have identified as being the most significant, in order of urgency - anxiety, self-esteem, change, meltdowns, depression, friendship, love, and much, much more. Based on years of personal experience, this book is packed with advice from Aspie mentors who have all been there and done that! World expert Dr. Tony Attwood rounds up each chapter with professional analysis and extensive recommendations. He includes essential information on destructive strategies that may look attractive, but that have counter-productive effects. Including full color artwork from Aspie artists showing visually how they interpret each stressor, this is THE inspirational guide to life for young adults, the newly diagnosed, and as a life-long reference for anyone on the spectrum - written by Aspies for Aspies.

A frantic chase through the farthest reaches of cyberspace . . .
The computer world is obsessed with the online fantasy game Armchair Safari, in which participants design their own quests and compete against one another for real money.
After starting his new job at the company behind this phenomenon, Gulf War veteran Derek Callahan dreams of putting his troubled past behind him. But when a massive amount of money disappears out of the game's accounting system, Derek finds himself in a desperate struggle against an international criminal organization that will stop at nothing to further its own ends.
It's a race against time in a no-holds barred contest where virtual danger becomes frighteningly real. Derek may lose everything he's ever cared about-and the demons of his past may become his worst enemy.
Part fantasy, part technothriller, ARMCHAIR SAFARI is a fast-paced adventure about crime in the digital world of the twenty-first century.
