Book of the month
Explaining Humans by Camilla Pang
Diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder at the age of 8, Camilla Pang struggled to understand the world around her and the way people worked.
Desperate for a solution, Camilla asked her mother if there was an instruction manual for humans that she could consult. But, without the blueprint to life she was hoping for, Camilla began to create her own.
Now armed with a PhD in biochemistry, Camilla dismantles our obscure social customs and identifies what it really means to be human using her unique expertise and a language she knows best: science.
