Have you, a friend or family member been living with undiagnosed autism?

For every visibly Autistic person you meet, there are countless 'masked' people who pass as neurotypical. They don't fit the stereotypical mould of Autism and are often forced by necessity to mask who they are, spending their entire lives trying to hide their Autistic traits. In particular, there is evidence that Autism remains significantly undiagnosed in women, people of colour, trans and gender non-conforming people, many of whom are only now starting to recognise those traits later in life.

Blending cutting-edge research, personal insights and practical exercises for self-expression, Dr Devon Price examines the phenomenon of 'masking', making a passionate argument for radical authenticity and non-conformity. A powerful call for change, Unmasking Autism gifts its readers with the tools to uncover their true selves and build a new society - one where everyone can thrive on their own terms.

The best book on Autism I have read

This is the most affirming book I have read on Autism to date, and believe me I have read a-lot of them. As an adult who recently discovered I am Autistic I was brought to tears at multiple times, whilst internally screaming “Yes, somebody finally gets it, I’m not alone”. This book helped me to accept myself and not feel guilty about lowering my mask.

It is very well written and very easy to relate to and understand. I highly recommended to anybody who is Autistic, or loves an Autistic Adult.

Disappointing

If you enjoy endless virtue signalling, this is the book for you. I honestly couldn’t finish it.

Helpful for a new dx autie

I smashed this in a couple days and it was so helpful for me. I found out I was autistic because of burnout and Dr Devon always comes recommended from other auts. His book is great and his online content is great.
