I think one of the things the book was saying is that people can be judgmental and non-accepting. Our society has a history of ostracizing those who are different from the norm. We have, however, made great strides in this past decade. Not excellent, but great. Generally people today are more aware of terms like spectrum, and autism. Next step is to for those who have these conditions to have full integration into society.
