Book review: ‘Understanding AuDHD’ and ‘Embracing Neurodiversity’

By Lee

Embracing Neurodiversity offers an overview of several neurodevelopmental conditions (autism, ADHD, dyslexia, Tourette’s, and dyscalculia), explaining their characteristics, challenges, and strengths, and advocating for neurodiversity acceptance. Then, Understanding AuDHD focuses specifically on the co-occurrence of autism and ADHD (AuDHD), exploring its neurological basis, impact on daily life, and strategies for support and understanding, emphasizing the Double Empathy Problem and the need for mutual understanding in communication.

Both books promote self-acceptance and provide practical advice for navigating life with these conditions. They also discuss the importance of professional diagnosis and effective coping mechanisms.
