Publisher's Summary

Temple Grandin’s professional training as an animal scientist and her history as a person with autism have given her a perspective like that of no other expert in the field. Grandin and coauthor Catherine Johnson present their powerful theory that autistic people can often think the way animals think—putting autistic people in the perfect position to translate “animal talk.” Exploring animal pain, fear, aggression, love, friendship, communication, learning, and, even animal genius, Grandin is a faithful guide into their world. Animals in Translation reveals that animals are much smarter than anyone ever imagined, and Grandin, standing at the intersection of autism and animals, offers unparalleled observations and extraordinary ideas about both.

interesting Perspective,

I appreciate Grandins desire to see and feel things from the animals view point, I feel that some of her concepts are are bit outdated but her experience and perspective is worth the read anyway. As a dog trainer that trains service dogs for people with disabilities including autism, I would have to say that some of the things she says are absolutes as far as the way people with autism experience the world are inaccurate which is my biggest complaint about this book, I would have rather her say this show she sees and experiences things rather then making blanket statements about all people with autism.
