John Robison is an important person in the field of Autism/Asperger's and serves as a kind of model for achievement despite the challenges of Autism "in the real world." As I counsel people on the spectrum seeking employment and success in life, I try to focus on "going with" rather than "against" special interests and abilities. People with autism spectrum disorders sure could use help in connecting special interests to career opportunities.
