'Reading this felt like being at home - I didn't realise how much I
masked. What an incredible book that I know will be re-read many
times over. * Dr Camilla Pang, author of Explaining Humans *
'Unmasking Autism is at once a most deeply personal and
scholarly account of the damage caused by autistic (and all) people
leading masked lives, and how unmasking is essential to creating a
self-determined, authentic life... This is a remarkable work that
will stand at the forefront of the neurodiversity movement' * Dr
Barry M. Prizant, author of Uniquely Human *
"Price's accessible and compassionate writing shines, and readers
will feel encouraged to embrace a new understanding of themselves.
Its potential to help masked autistic adults, especially those from
systemically marginalized backgrounds, makes this book essential
for most collections."-Library Journal
'An essential roadmap for autistic people to be themselves' * NPR *
