Summary

Imagine a world where an autistic person is included, engaged and cherished for how they are; a world which changes for autistic people, rather than changing the person. This book brings the conversation about inclusivity into the forefront and turns it on its head. Instead of modifying the autistic individual, Luke outlines the foundations that will lead to to a genuine change not just in the conversation about inclusivity, but about how we accept, and adjust for, autistic authenticity. Luke uses his Golden Equation -- autism + environment = outcome -- to show how the environment needs to change to accommodate the autistic person, for the best possible outcome. He explains what autism identification is, and why it matters -- and shows why autistic safety is under threat, and what you need to feel secure, and free from anxiety. No-one should have to struggle in a world they don't understand: this book gives you the dialogue and tools to involve everyone as advocates for a world in which you can flourish.
