look what Suz wrote

Susanne is one of my very closest friends, and this is her most recent nonfiction book. And it's destined for greatness, say I -- and I'm not the only one. From BOOKLIST November 15, 2005
*STAR*Antonetta, Susanne. A Mind Apart: Travels in a Neurodiverse World. Putnam/Tarcher, $24.95 (1-58542-382-3)

Antonetta's galvanizing first book, Body Toxic (2001), marked the emergence of a poetic and frank chronicler of life lived in a polluted world. She now offers a kinetic, impressionistic, and philosophical inquiry into neurodiversity, a term for "people hardwired to think differently from the norm." [...] Once again, Antonetta alters our perception of ourselves and our place in the biosphere as she makes unexpected connections, traverses rarely charted territory, articulates provocative observations, and leaves readers pondering a startling question, is neurodiversity as essential to life as biodiversity? **Donna Seaman
