About this listen

Temple Grandin offers the world yet another great work, an inspiring and informative book that offers both hope and encouragement. In this audiobook, Temple presents the personal success stories of 14 unique individuals that illustrate the extraordinary potential of those on the autism spectrum.

One of Temple’s primary missions is to help people with autism, Asperger’s syndrome, and ADHD tap into their hidden abilities. Temple chose these contributors from a wide variety of different skill sets to show how it can be done.

Each individual tells their own story in their own words about their lives, relationships, and eventual careers. The contributors also share how they dealt with issues they confronted while growing up, such as bullying, making eye contact, and honing social skills.

Different...Not Less shows how, with work, each of the contributors:

  • Found invaluable mentors
  • Learned skills necessary for employment when young
  • Became successfully employed
  • Developed self-confidence
  • Faced the challenges of forming and maintaining relationships
  • (And sometimes) Raised families

Missed the reader from Thinking inPictures

I love Temple’s books. They are helping me a lot.
Unfortunately I did not love this voice. Not for Temple’s books. Maybe better suited for fiction.

Thank you Dr Grandin

This is a very helpful collection of accounts of adults with autism telling their stories. A variety of experiences and abilities in the part(s?) of the spectrum formally referred to as Asperger’s syndrome. If I had a dollar for every time I thought, “whoa, I can relate to that!” while listening to this (Audible), I’d be several hundred Benjamins by the end. The narrator pronounced a few things in unconventional ways, but I found it endearing and experience enhancing. Loved this book and all that I learned from it.
