Opis

It is a common assumption that as a result of their neurological, cognitive and social challenges, people on the autism spectrum are unable to comprehend the meaning and significance of spirituality and religious experiences. Olga Bogdashina argues persuasively that the spiritual development of those on the autism spectrum is in fact way ahead of that of their neurotypical peers. She describes differences in sensory perceptual, cognitive and linguistic development that make spiritual and religious experiences come more easily to those on the autism spectrum, and presents a coherent framework for understanding the routes of spiritual development and spiritual intelligence of giftedness within this group. Using research evidence and many real examples to illustrate her hypotheses, she suggests practical ways of supporting the spiritual needs of people on the autism spectrum and their families. This book gives a voice to both verbal and non-verbal individuals on the autism spectrum whose spiritual and religious experiences, though unconventional, are meaningful and profound. It is essential reading for all those involved in the spiritual care of this group, including pastoral carers and counsellors, ministers of religion, spiritual leaders and parents.
