The Power of Neurodiversity: Unleashing the Advantages of Your Differently Wired Brain

Psychologist and educator Armstrong illuminates a new understanding of neuropsychological disorders. He argues that if they are a part of the natural diversity of the human brain, they cannot simply be defined as illnesses. Armstrong explores the evolutionary advantages, special skills, and other positive dimensions of these conditions. A manifesto as well as a keenly intelligent look at “disability,” this book is an important read for parents, teachers, and anyone who is “differently brained.”
