Temple Grandin, Ph.D., is a gifted animal scientist who has designed one third of all the livestock-handling facilities in the United States. She also lectures widely on autism--because Temple Grandin is autistic, a woman who thinks, feels, and experiences the world in ways that are incomprehensible to the rest of us.

In this unprecedented book, Grandin delivers a report from the country of autism. Writing from the dual perspectives of a scientist and an autistic person, she tells us how that country is experienced by its inhabitants and how she managed to breach its boundaries to function in the outside world. What emerges in Thinking in Pictures is the document of an extraordinary human being, one who, in gracefully and lucidly bridging the gulf between her condition and our own, sheds light on the riddle of our common identity.

Good shelving decor
Color: Black
Easy to install and perfect for a corner display of Disney decor. They are lightweight, so we didn't put anything heavy on them, but the brackets seem sturdy enough that we could probably put something moderately weighty on them.

GREAT BUY
Color: Natural Wood
LOVE these shelves! Got them for each side of the bed to put books. Really elevates the room, and is cuter than just a simple straight book shelf.

Not made well
Color: Natural Wood
Not made well. Wood had some warping. Only 2 screws per bracket. Not very sturdy.

Quality shelves. Easy to hang.
Color: Natural Wood
Hung them in my daughters room and she loves them. Easy to install but quality wood doesn't feel or look cheap. Will buy again for other rooms.

Eye pleasing shelves with the ability to hold weight
Color: Light Brown, Size: 4
Great set of 4 wood floating shelves. I used these to hold precon decks and other commander decks for magic the gathering cards. Though they are on the smaller size, they still fit up to 4 commander boxes side by side and and withhold double that if I stack the boxes. I am very impressed by the quality and how much weight each shelf can hold. The brackets to hang them make the shelves even more sturdy. The shelves are very pleasing on the eyes and the wood color is very natural. The shelves were simple to hang by one person. They look very stunning and of great value. They hold all kinds of items and function perfect as a shelf and look wonderful as a form/type of wall decoration even without items on the shelves. Overall I’m very happy with this purchase and I will be buying more of these shelves soon.
