Diagnosed with "atypical development with strong autistic tendencies" and nonverbal until age four, Stephen Shore was viewed as "too sick" to be treated on an outpatient basis.  Stephen Shore is now completing his doctoral degree in special education at Boston University with a focus on helping people on the autism spectrum develop their capacities to the fullest extent possible.  "As you read Stephen's book about his life, you will marvel at the courage, persistence and intelligence that continue to guide his quest to cope with a complex, highly nuanced world.  You will finish the book- not only with greater understanding of the autism spectrum- but with renewed appreciation of what it means to become fully human."
