The difference that being female makes to the diagnosis, life and experiences of an autistic person is hugely significant. In this essential guide, Sarah Hendrickx brings together the latest research with powerful personal stories from autistic girls and women to present a clear, insightful picture of their thoughts, challenges, and strengths across every stage of life.

Now reimagined as a fully illustrated graphic edition, this accessible visual companion distils Hendrickx's groundbreaking overview into a format that combines clarity with lived experience. Surveying the impact of autism from childhood, education, and adolescence through to friendships, employment, parenting, and ageing, it offers an invaluable lens on an often-misunderstood profile.

With up-to-date content on masking, late diagnosis, the experiences of trans and non-binary people, and specific health and wellbeing considerations - including menopause, autistic burnout, hypermobility/Ehlers-Danlos, PCOS, and alexithymia - this graphic guide is an essential resource for professionals and a validating, illuminating companion for autistic women seeking to understand their experiences in context.
