Looks like I have added another book to my library. Animals are aware of things in areas humans cannot understand. My books, It's ok Eli, shows the relationship between he and his dog over fifteen years. I have read Temple's book and even though Eli is now 31 years of age, I continue searching for answers. Thanks and happiness to you, CarolHawks

Review of ''Dasha''s Journal: A Cat Reflects on Life, Catness and Autism'' by - Manuel F. Casanova, M.D., Gottfried and Gisela Kolb Endowed Chair in Psychiatry Associate Chair for Research University of Louisville, USA:
'Dasha's Journal is a much needed work that blends the literary journey with an engaging scientific study. The book provides exemplary and cunning analogies to help the reader better appreciate the inner world of the autistic person. The author's thesis exemplifies autism as a different way of thinking with both strengths and weaknesses. The final result is a funny, clever, and up to date exposition of our present day knowledge regarding autism.'
