Item description from seller

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A First Philosophy of Autism: The Unsorted Flame is a foundational work of autistic philosophy that begins where prior accounts have ended, with the plain fact of a mind arranged differently, before any question of its worth, use, or repair has been permitted to arise.E. R. Davis refuses the inherited grammar that has governed every previous inquiry into autism: the demand that a way of being justify itself at the tribunal of function or dysfunction, asset or deficit, celebration or pathology. Instead, the book constructs its argument from the inside outward, in eighteen chambers that move from the structure of intake-the unsorted flood met awake and without a cellar servant, through the ethics of mutual misreading (the double empathy problem and the principle of compulsion), a distinctive epistemology of simultaneous coherentism, and onward through language, embodiment, sociality, suffering, justice, the sacred, beauty, childhood, objects, work, gender, and ending.What emerges is neither a defense nor a manifesto but a first laying of stones: a rigorous structural testimony to what autism is as a disposition of mind, what it owes and is owed, and what becomes possible when the fraudulent invoice that has long billed autistic people for the cost of difference is finally torn up. Written with exacting care and without appeal to external authority, this is a book that autistic readers will recognize in their bones and that non-autistic readers will encounter as a map to territory they have been taught to pathologize or romanticize but never simply to meet.For philosophers, it extends coherentism, phenomenology, and ethics into territory they have scarcely touched. For autistic people, it offers a language adequate to the architecture they already inhabit. For everyone else, it offers the rarest of gifts: an account of autism that begins with dignity rather than diagnosis and ends with a clearer picture of what we owe one another across the gap that neither side made. …
