Surprisingly, many neurotypical (non-autistic) individuals also found his tools applicable in their everyday life, and encouraged him to share these with a broader audience. Everybody needs some simple tools to navigate the interactions of daily life. This guide is the only toolbox you need. Part self-help, part philosophy, and all common-sense.
