Animals In Translation by Temple Grandin

[911Newfs]

My husband picked this book up for me a few months ago and I never had time to read it. A recent trip gave me the perfect opportunity to start reading it while on the plane - glad I did. This is a very interesting book. The book is about animal behavior with insight from autism and even contains a "Troubleshooting Guide" for behavior and training in the back of the book. The author is an animal scientist and autistic. An interesting and good read.

I saw the author on "Sixty Minutes" and got the book. I agree, it is very worth while and full of interesting facts and research that she has done that you won't find elsewhere. I think she has another book either out or comig out soon.
