Historians have long remarked on Thomas Jefferson's
"peculiarities." But it took author Norm Ledgin, whose son has
Asperger's Syndrome, to see what others did not. In this intriguing
book, Ledgin carefully constructs a convincing case for the
likelihood that Thomas Jefferson had Asperger's Syndrome. He
matches Jefferson's behaviors with five diagnostic criteria for
Asperger's: social impairment, preoccupation with "special
interests," impairment in nonverbal communication, lack of
emotional reciprocity, and inflexible adherence to non-functional
routines. He also addresses other well-known signs of Asperger's,
such as failure to recognize social cues, need for calming
pressure, and indifference to peer pressure. A fascinating read!
