results in a powerful introduction to being human that is truly also animal, while making visible instances of nonhuman agency and expressions of selfhood. Taken together, Affect, Animals, and Autists is an excellent first step toward asking difficult questions of bringing together the traditionally oppressed, persecuted, and subjugated. While Carlson remains hesitant in stating wider connections among case studies, and animals remain relatively absent from the text, Affect, Animals, and Autists provides an admirable analysis of disabled voices and representation in performance. The book has opened the door to the difficult arena where able and disabled, human and animal, and neurotypical and neurodiverse make up the “human” in ways that are all unique and wonderfully liberating.
