Keep Clear - my adventures with Asperger's (Paperback): Tom Cutler Keep Clear - my adventures with Asperger's (Paperback)
Tom Cutler 1
R276 Discovery Miles 2 760 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

A revealing memoir about living with Asperger's syndrome that is by turns laugh-out-loud funny and achingly sad. It is only when he is diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, at the age of 55, that Tom Cutler's life starts to make sense - his accidental rudeness, his strange obsessions (including road signs and Sherlock Holmes), his unusual way of dressing, and his trouble in company. In this moving memoir, Tom explores his eccentric behaviour from boyhood to manhood, examines the role of autism in his family, and investigates the scientific explanations for his condition. Eloquent, witty, and insightful, Keep Clear ultimately shows why the day Tom received his diagnosis turned out to be the happiest day of his life.

The Pilot Who Wore a Dress - And Other Dastardly Lateral Thinking Mysteries (Paperback): Tom Cutler The Pilot Who Wore a Dress - And Other Dastardly Lateral Thinking Mysteries (Paperback)
Tom Cutler 1
R421 Discovery Miles 4 210 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Devised by devious genius Tom Cutler, The Pilot Who Wore a Dress is a fiendish collection of riddles, mysteries and puzzles to test and tease your brain. Here's a simple one to get you started: four bodybuilders are huddling together in the street, under a small ladies' umbrella, yet after 20 minutes not one of them has got wet. How is this possible? Separated into original brainteasers and timeless conundrums, plus locked-room head-scratchers and unsolvable crimes borrowed from the very best of detective fiction, this cunning collection will give your lateral thinking muscle a proper workout. See if you can crack the problems by tracing the clues tucked away in each mystery, without sneaking a peak at the answers at the back of the book. These puzzles are perfect for the squashed commute and after-dinner whoopla alike. They are guaranteed to entertain and delight, whether you're a wannabe Sherlock Holmes or a budding Jonathan Creek. Side effects may include bafflement, laughter, smugness, and exclamations along the lines of, 'It's so obvious once you know the answer.' Oh, and about those bone-dry bodybuilders - who said it was raining? So obvious!
