Physical or mental handicaps can make one seem apparently different from others and lead to being excluded or included with an inferior status. Apparently DIFFERENT, written by over a score of authors who know this situation intimately, will make its readers realize the importance of treating all of us as precious human beings.

As Eileen Goudge, New York Times best-selling author, puts it: "One of our life's greatest mysteries is how to be accepted. It is a case which has yet to be solved. The clues left behind in Apparently DIFFERENT give us a glimpse of the world many of us never experience. May you fall in love with their bravery and embrace them with all your heart."

The book's authors---Adria Goldman Gross, FIPC, and Douglas Winslow Cooper, PhD---begin, "We dedicate this empathetically to all those who cope with being perceived negatively as being different. You deserve understanding, acceptance, and compassion; we hope this book contributes to your obtaining all these."

The authors summarize their goals for this book:

"Apparently DIFFERENT has been published to request people to accept relationships with others with challenging conditions. We all deserve respect and admiration. When reading Apparently DIFFERENT, imagine yourself living with their life experiences."
