When Max was four, he was diagnosed with something called PDD-NOS—pervasive developmental disorder, not otherwise specified. His parents thought the news couldn’t get any worse. But six years later, Max was rediagnosed with autism. He is low functioning and barely verbal, and when he becomes frustrated or overwhelmed—which happens often—he hurts himself or others. For his younger brother, Justin, this can be hard to understand. But Justin loves his brother and wants to understand him better. Written with children in mind, Medicine for My Big Brother explores the impact of autism from a sibling’s perspective, especially focusing on the use and effects of psychotropic medication. Based on dozens of intensive interviews with parents and clinicians, Medicine for My Big Brother is the story of a modern struggle with a universal theme: a brother’s love.

Lori Darley has dedicated her life to embodying the fullest and most authentic expression of the human experience, both through her continuing commitment to the arts and through her current work as a leadership and high performance coach. Today, she shares her wisdom through her coaching practice, where she guides clients through a process called "The Clearing"—a personal development framework that allows participants to open channels for previously undiscovered insight and action. In Dancing Naked, Lori shows how she herself opened such channels despite—and even because of—seemingly insurmountable blocks in her own life and, as a result, arrived at the set of practices she works with today. From staring down the barrel of a rifle at Checkpoint Charlie to co-founding and leading a critically-acclaimed dance company to becoming a coach and leader in the conscious business movement, Lori honed techniques that take her straight to the heart of any opportunity. Building on her experience as an internationally recognized dancer and armed with her characteristic humor and wit, Lori uses Dancing Naked to guide leaders onto the road toward their most brilliant selves.
