New! You Are a Social Detective is now translated into Spanish and French and Social Behavior Mapping is translated into Spanish. For book orders in the UK and Europe, please go to thinkingbooks.co.uk. Not all titles are currently available, but will increase, and shipping costs will be less than from our U.S. location. There is no better indicator of the relevance of Social Thinking® than its embrace in countries around the world. Social Thinking operates below the level of culture, so the social thinking vocabulary truly makes up a “universal language.” Michelle Garcia Winner, the founder of Social Thinking, now travels the globe working with groups that are creating curricula for their communities. On the left menu, you will see our current translations of Michelle's writings. The books and the articles in French reflect the growth of social thinking in Canada and Europe. We also offer several articles in Portuguese. In the UK, Teachers magazine featured Social Thinking in the article, "ASD in the USA." Participating in the teaching of Superflex, the author writes, "This was an incredibly fun, visual and accessible way of teaching flexible thinking – not only for the children with ASD, but their classmates too..." On Michelle’s blog you can read the introduction to her booklet that is now translated into Chinese for educators and parents in Hong Kong. The booklet summarizes the basic concepts of social thinking and the introduction shows how these concepts span cultures. Social Thinking therapy methods have become part of the curriculum for students in Hong Kong. You can view a TV news story from TVB World News on August 18, 2009 [in English, and a Hong Kong News story from August 19, 2009 (Chinese/English].
