{"product_id":"a-mind-apart-9781585425181b","title":"A Mind Apart","description":"In this fascinating literary memoir, Susanne Antonetta draws on her personal experience as a manic-depressive, as well as interviews with people with multiple personality disorder, autism, and other neurological conditions, to form an intimate meditation on mental \"disease.\" She traces the many capabilities - the visual consciousness of an autistic, for example, or the metaphoric consciousness of a manic-depressive - that underlie these and other mental \"disabilities.\" A stunning portrait of how the world shapes itself in minds that are profoundly different from the norm, A Mind Apart urges readers to look beyond the concept of cures to the gifts inherent in many neuroatypical conditions. Employing a wide-ranging approach to her subject, Antonetta provides a rare glimpse into the wildly varying landscapes of human thought, perception, and emotion.","brand":"Tarcher","offers":[{"title":"Bargain","offer_id":42985850765392,"sku":"9781585425181B","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookoutlet.com\/fr\/products\/a-mind-apart-9781585425181b","provider":"Book Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
