Abstract
Following on from the Asperger Love Guide and Social Guide , this third book in the series of self-help practical life guides aims to cover the personal issues that an adult with Asperger's syndrome faces in a world not designed for people with autism. Written from the perspective of two Asperger's adults it looks at: - the positive aspects of Asperger's syndrome and how these translate into everyday life - strategies for mental and physical health as an adult with Asperger's syndrome. The book aims to help adults gain self-esteem and get the most out of themselves as a unique adult with Asperger's syndrome.
