Reseña del libro "Through an Autistic Lens (en Inglés)"

What happens when autism is misunderstood by the very systems meant to provide care?This powerful and thought-provoking book explores the intersection of autism, motherhood, mental health, education, and midwifery through the author's unique perspective as both an autistic woman and a qualified midwife.Diagnosed alongside two of her children, the author draws on her personal journey, academic research, and professional experience to challenge misconceptions surrounding autistic women. From navigating family trauma and mental health services to examining the realities of maternity care, she reveals how systemic barriers, stigma, and inadequate understanding continue to impact autistic lives.Combining memoir with evidence-based research, the book examines why autistic women are disproportionately misunderstood within healthcare and society. It explores the influence of deficit-based models of autism, questions traditional assumptions about motherhood, and highlights the importance of education, reasonable adjustments, and person-centred care.The book also presents original research into midwives' understanding of autism, exposing gaps in professional training while offering practical recommendations for creating more inclusive and compassionate maternity services.Essential reading for healthcare professionals, midwives, educators, researchers, students, and families, this book challenges dominant narratives, amplifies autistic voices, and advocates for evidence-based, human rights-centred care.A compelling blend of lived experience and scholarship, it offers both a deeper understanding of autism and a clear call for meaningful change.
