About the Book

"Context is King" says Dr.Peter Gerhardt. In this book Travis teaches the reader about the importance of learning advanced social skills like social thinking and the ability to understand social context in social relationships. Travis has always been curious about social thinking even before he knew what it was. He knew there was more to social skills than adaptive living skills. Travis shares how he took it upon himself to learn about social thinking by reading Michelle Garcia Winner's book and hiring social skills coaches that worked on more advanced things with him. Social thinking is the ability to understand non-verbal and unwritten communication in social relationships. Since communication is 93% non-verbal and only 7 percent verbal it is important to learn about social thinking and try to gain an understanding of what social context is. This book is an advanced guidebook about social skills. This book gives the reader tips on finding the right social skills coach their children and will also educate the reader about many important autism topics. This book is full of information on what exactly advanced social skills coaching would look like and how you can be sure your child is getting the best help available to them. Here is an excerpt from the book. "Context is a major component of social thinking. Social context is extremely critical in understanding even the most basic social concept there is in life. I know of a story told by Peter Gerhardt about a woman with autism who was having an intense conversation with her mother about parenting and growing up to become an adult. This mother talking to her daughter with autism wanted to prepare her for marriage and children and she insisted on telling her daughter that she could not get pregnant until she got married. The daughter really took her mother very literally and thought that she could not honestly get pregnant until she got married. She took her mother's request word for word and did not even practice safe sex when having sex with her partner because she did not think that she would get or become pregnant because her mother told her that she was not to become pregnant until she got married. This created a lot of issues and drama within the woman's family because the girl really trusted her mother and believed in her mother so imagine the disappointment on the woman's part when she found out she was pregnant and was not married because she now felt like her mother had lied to her."
About the Author: I'm Travis. I'm a 30 year old author of books about autism. I like football, basketball, tennis, hiking, music, rock, writing, reading, and talking. I have overcome the greatest challenge in my life. I no longer cope with autism I live happily with it. I have some really amazing friends and a truly inspirational and awesome best friend! Life had always been a struggle for me until I started taking responsibility for my own life and situation. I spent a long time wanting and expecting others to fix or improve my life and make it what I wanted it to be. Truth be known, I was the only one who could and can do that. Now I write books about autism and how I am taking responsibility for my own life. What a difference I've seen in life. Life is what we choose to make of it. I don't want to just be known as a guy with Autism. I want to be known as a guy who's doing something awesome with Autism Travis is dually diagnosed with Autism and Schizophrenia.
