Okay so this book is clearly really good and I felt it was a super accessible way to talk about Autism and the history of our understanding, perceptions and acceptance of Autism and Autistic people, but it felt SO LONG. I can see why it was all included, but I'd have liked a version without so much detail into the specific lives of some of the people mentioned... But that's just a small thing and, overall, this book was great and I'm glad I read it
