The purpose of this emotional dictionary is not to explain the literal meaning of certain words but to show the consequences that language has on the vision of diversity. Terms such as exclusion, equality, desire, aspiration or self-determination are common to all human beings and particularly important to those who are part of any minority. Starting from neurodiversity, of which the autistic author is a profound connoisseur and popularizer, the words that touch all other forms of diversity are explored: cultural, religious, sexual and gender, related to different physical functionality. This essay provides a stimulus to openness, to understanding diversity and how indispensable it is in an evolved society, where true equality can only occur through the recognition and enhancement of the differences and unique characteristics of each individual--Translated from inside front flap.
