Dummy: a memoir

By David Patten

A child in the 1950s, David Patten was labeled retarded, lazy, stupida dummy. Isolated by an autism spectrum disorder and dyslexia, David slipped into the dark underbelly of American life, spending time in a mental institution, a violent inner-city school for troubled youth, and an experimental home for schizophrenics. David's remarkable journey from brokenness to a truly successful, awakened life offers an inspiring vision of our human potential.
