How to Read Minds

‘Sharp, funny and brilliant – a book that needed to be written’ Dr Camilla Pang, author of Explaining Humans

‘A beautifully observed exploration of what it really means to understand another person. It’s a book about tuning in, slowing down and learning to hear what isn’t always spoken. Wise, honest and quietly transformative’ Emma Reed Turrell, author of Please Yourself

‘Clear-eyed, forensic and humane … challenges outdated assumptions about how we understand autistic people and each other. Empathy as a collective learning exercise is something we could all do with more of’ Sophie Walker, author of Five Rules for Rebellion

‘A much-needed guide to empathy – what it really is, what it isn’t, and all the ways in which we can put it to transformative use’ Joanne Limburg, author of Letters to My Weird Sisters

‘Challenges us to question the ‘universal’ in human psychology and relationships … to argue that what really matters is how we show up for each other’ Devon Price, author of Unmasking Autism

‘In this warm and insightful book, Aimee Cliff offers an invaluable reframing of the nature of empathy: empathy is not a static trait, but a practice one can develop’ Nick Walker, author of Neuroqueer Heresies
