Neurotribes by Steve Silberman

Black AF History by Michael Harriot

I'm also rereading The Explosive Child by Ross Greene and Mindful Parenting with ADHD by Mark Bertin for a project in working on

And bf and I are listening to Dungeon Crawler Carl (yes, AGAIN)

Me too. He'd love what's going on right now. And, it would've been fun to get his take on current events. I no longer have a copy of his book because I keep giving it away. #NeuroTribes

In Steven Silberman's NeuroTribes he talks about a couple who was brought back from the brink of chelating/toxin shit for their autistic kid. I'm not saying there aren't lost causes but events are already showing that some of the less gung ho MAHA types think they've been hoodwinked.

I've only ever read one, "Neurotribes."

It was an interesting history, but I felt it was missing something.

I keep seeing you telling people to do this and that's why I read that and Neurotribes. Keep telling people.

After reading Sapiens & Neurotribes, I guess the whole history of humanity is essentially greedy unempathetic psychopaths exploiting autistic geniuses to build the infrastructure of reality that they would then continue to exploit.

This is since we moved to agrarian from hunter-gatherer.

Crazy.

@wardqnormal.bsky.social Hiya. I want to apologise in advance, because what I'm about to say might be upsetting, but I really hope it isn't.

I've just read Neurotribes over the last couple days, and I am astonished.

It's so important to tell the people we love how much they mean to us. Don't wait. Life is so fragile. I am very grateful that @stevesilberman.bsky.social knew how much I admired and adored him. Happy 11th birthday, NeuroTribes. xx
Every author's dream is writing a book that touches some readers so deeply that they post "birthday" pics every year on the day it was published. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Kristen G. Callow, for being a great person, a brave mom, and the biggest fan of my book "NeuroTribes."

Relative was a very shy child, had strange trouble at high school cos she would laugh when frightened (e.g. when teachers got angry) which you can imagine did not go down well. She got lucky with friends in teens, but then met alcohol/weed and fell off the rails. Neurotribes case stories rang bells.

Ah yes, good spot Otto! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

An aside

Have you come across, Neurotribes by Steve Silberman? The focus is on autism, it's history etc but a fact that blew my mind was the number of babies/children 'euthenased' in Austria/Germany for being disabled in some way - estimated between 5000 and 25,000

This is an excellent book, which you should definitely read if you're neurodivergent. And if you're neurotypical you should read it too.

Then read Neurotribes by Steve Silberman.

Come on, don't hang around, you've got books to get...

www.waterstones.com/book/asperge... - I'd only read a short chapter in Steve Silberman's Neurotribes book - the book title above really explores what lead to the horrific murders of disabled and autistic children.

Blergh. Forgot to share my July reads. Mostly dark and spooky with some funnies, some craft, and some history thrown in.

Brain came up with relevant reference last night, after I turned the computer off.
"NeuroTribes" by Steve Silberman. History of the study and diagnosis.

I devoured “Neurotribes” on a cross-country train trip when it came out in 2015, and read his Wired piece on the Silicon Valley autism cluster yrs before — his work def improved as he grew into a disability advocate, and he’s prob the most major catalyst in our cultural familiarity w the syndrome.
August 10, 2026 at 9:01 PM
Yea, nope! This so-called "epidemic" is due to a vast rise in attention to the topic and to diagnosing it. They could read @stevesilberman.bsky.social's Neurotribes, but that would take effort.

I’m glad I read your book and Neurotribes when I did, because they both allowed for reflecting on progress that had been made. Not so much at this point, but not for the failure of you or any other advocates.

Alongside Silberman’s Neurotribes, this is compulsory reading. Expands on Chapman’s Empire of Normality
August 10, 2026 at 5:20 AM
Every time I reread Neurotribes I think Silberman did right by autistic people and buried everyone else in so much information and details. 😹 Hey, that's a good way to err.

As the person who told you about Unmasking Autism, I'm somewhere between politely suggesting and demanding that you read Neurotribes too.
