Unique : What Autism Can Teach Us About Difference, Connection And Belonging
Paperback Edition: 1
Beloved star of ABC TV's award-winning Love on the Spectrum and disability rights advocate Jodi Rodgers shares stories from her three-decade career working with the autistic community and calls for a more inclusive and accepting society where we are more empathetic and curious about all the relationships in our lives.
Jodi explores the powerful impact of embracing neurodiversity and forming meaningful connections with those around us. Each chapter highlights a different story and an aspect of human behaviour. With dozens of moving stories, Jodi's book will give readers a deeper understanding of and appreciation for the neurodiverse community around them. Above all, it will inspire a profound sense of belonging, revealing that we're much more similar than we think and that all of our differences are worth celebrating.
Jodi Rodgers is a qualified sexologist, counsellor and special education teacher. She has worked within the education and community sectors in both Australia and internationally and has extensive experience working with people with disability and diverse neurology across the life span.
