The Power of Different is an illuminating and uplifting examination
of the link between brain differences and aptitude. Psychologist
and bestselling author Gail Saltz presents the latest scientific
research and profiles famous geniuses and lay individuals who have
been diagnosed with all manner of brain 'problems' - including
learning disabilities, ADD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder,
schizophrenia and autism. Saltz shows that the source of our
struggles can be the origin of our greatest strengths. Rooted in
her experience as a professor and practicing psychiatrist, and
based on the latest neurological research, Saltz demonstrates how
specific deficits in certain areas of the brain are directly
associated with the potential for great talent. She also shows how
the very conditions that can cause difficulty at school, in social
situations, at home or at work, are bound to creative,
disciplinary, artistic, empathetic and cognitive abilities. In this
pioneering work, readers will find engaging scientific research and
stories from historical geniuses and everyday individuals who have
not only made the most of their conditions, but who have flourished
because of them. Enlightening and inspiring, The Power of Different
shows how the unique wiring of every brain can be a source of
strength and productivity, and can contribute to the richness of
our world.
