Hi

I saw "one step beyond" on discovery channel.
In the end there were a 3 minutes story about an autistic female named Temple Grandin (PhD) that understand what cows think and she invented a caddle wall of some kind.

I think she will be my autistic hero.

I really liked the story.

Yes, Dr. Grandin is a very interesting person! She is pretty famous here in the US.

I've read her books. I think she's very clever. :)

Robert:

Dr. Grandin has published several books on autism and her experiences with autism. I don't know if they are in Swedish, but your English is very good, so you might find them interesting.
