I had just finished reading John Elder Robison's first book "Look Me In The Eye" and was delighted to hear that he was about to release another book, somewhat a more practical guide to living with and dealing with people diagnosed with Aspergers.  I found it was just a great read, and a fine guide for anyone who is deemed "different" in our society.  John designed the exploding fire guitars for Ace Frehley, and was at the forefront in video game design.  His story is an amazing journey of triumph and I recommend it highly.  He will be appearing at Powell's on April 20th.  Enjoy the interview.
