What reading level is The Autistic Brain: Thinking Across the Spectrum book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The sound of hand dryers in public restrooms. Not so much when the air jet starts, but the moment someone’s hands enter the stream. The sudden drop in register drives me nuts. It’s like when the vacuum toilet on an airplane flushes. First comes the brief rainlike prelude, then a thunderclap of suction. I hate that. Fingernails-on-a-chalkboard hate.
You know what else I hate about air travel? The alarm that goes off when somebody in an airport accidentally opens a secure door. I hate alarms in ge...neral, for that matter. When I was a kid, the school bell made me absolutely crazy. It felt like a dentist’s drill. No exaggeration: The sound caused a sensation inside my skull like the pain from a dentist’s drill.
By now you’ve probably noticed a pattern in what I hate. I’m sensitive to sounds. Loud sounds. Sudden sounds. Worse yet, loud and sudden sounds I don’t expect. Worst of all, loud and sudden sounds I do expect but cannot control—a common problem in people with autism. Balloons terrified me as a child, because I didn’t know when they were going to pop.
