First and Foremost


Roy Richard Grinker, author of Unstrange Mind : Remapping the World of Autism. After Grinker's daughter Isabelle was diagnosed with the condition, he set out to learn more about the illness and its treatment. What he's learned has set the conventional wisdom on its ear.

Grinker was just on Minnesota Public Radio's Midmorning program. It was a good, lively discussion, but if you were listening on the radio (or if you listen online), you weren't able to call in and participate.

Thing is, MPR is following a path we've already blazed. Roy Richard Grinker was in our store about a week ago, reading from his book and answering questions from the audience. So if you want to see the newsmakers before they hit the airwaves, watch our events page. You'll hear it here first.
