Serving Differently: My Story is a reflective autobiography about service, family, neurodivergence, and late-life self-understanding. At seventy-six, the author came to recognise that his lifelong way of seeing, thinking, and responding to the world had been shaped by neurodivergence. Prompted by the diagnoses of his grandchildren, he revisits a lifetime of heightened sensory perception, problem-solving, misunderstanding, and public service. Honest, thoughtful, and deeply personal, this book invites readers to better understand those who experience the world differently.
