Books Quote by Winnie Dunn
““understand that everyone’s behaviors are on the same continuum of responses, it is easier to see we are more like each other than different from each other. This book enables all of us to understand the nature of our individual differences (particularly in relation to our responses to sensory experiences), which in turn makes us more interesting to each other. You may know the guy with the silent garage door opener, and this book will help you understand his need for quiet, making your relationship more successful and satisfying for both of you.””
