The world is experiencing unprecedented social upheaval on every continent. Autistic adults are a part of the sea of changes taking place, although it is not always apparent. There is a quiet transition taking place within the autism community where adults on the spectrum are demanding equality. Furthermore, the perception of living with autism is trending towards personalized independence that addresses experiences, backgrounds, family history, and interests. The traditional view that focused primarily on behavior is no longer the preferred framework to build upon. Rather, a more inclusive narrative is developing which includes hobbies, career interests, education, along with marriage and family goals. Chief among the changes taking place is how autistic adults see themselves. Having a positive self-image is paramount for autistic adults as they seek to ascend to the level of full inclusion and reap the rewards of increased participation in society. For years autistic adults have been marginalized and viewed as a novelty. The massive shift in attitude within the community is assertive in demanding equal treatment and access to new opportunities. Importantly, the change in behaviors has resulted in changing attitudes towards adults living with autism. Autistic adults are rejecting the idea of being victims and seeing themselves in a position of influence and power. While medical conditions, including mental health challenges, continue to play a significant role in the lives of many, they are no longer perceived as barriers to living a fully inclusive life. Walls are coming down in areas once considered off limits to autistic adults due to the belief that they are capable when given the opportunity. The dynamic taking place not only involves how autistics see themselves, but also how the rest of society views those with autism. The world is much more accepting and tolerant of people with autism, and other disabilities, than in the past. This has resulted in greater understanding while promoting inclusion in employment and housing. The final building block needed for autistic adults to live at a maximum level is supported health care. There must be trained medical professionals who have the compassion and skills to address the unique health issues associated with autism. Moreover, having mental health counseling and supportive services are vital to the success of each autistic individual and the broader community. The author discusses why there is a shared responsibility between autistic adults and other members of society as related to assimilation. The traditional view of autistics changing to fit in with the rest of society is distorted and no longer relevant. Rather, a more inclusive approach would best serve society as the unique abilities found on the spectrum would be fully supported. Moreover, we must bridge the gap between the neurodiverse community and the rest of society if we are going to achieve true inclusiveness. This is the one book everyone seeking illumination about autism must read. The winds of change are upon us and with it, the potential to soar higher is available to all citizens.
