This was a really informative and important read; as an autistic person who probably would have been diagnosed with Asperger's if anyone had caught on to my autism as a child, this was at times difficult to read on an emotional level, but I think any feeling person would have felt similarly anyway. I'm really glad I read this, as I now know more of the context and history behind autism, and have stronger arguments for those who want to say using the term "Asperger's" or terms like "high-functioning" are fine. I would definitely recommend reading this to anyone remotely interested. Just be sure to take care of yourself, especially if you're disabled or have any other personal connection to groups targeted in the Holocaust.
