Raising a child with Asperger's Syndrome (AS) can be a great
struggle and an exhausting fight for the rights of someone who is
both gifted and different. In Natural Genius: The Gifts of
Asperger's Syndrome, Susan Rubinyi tells the story of raising her
son Ben and how she came to view his AS, and the gifts that come
with it. Rather than examining the negatives and difficulties, she
emphasizes the extraordinary positives of her son's life ? his
photographic memory, perfect pitch and French-English bilingual
abilities. Advocating a strengths-based approach, Rubinyi explains
how her background in foreign language, science fiction and music,
as well as her own feelings of alienation, have helped her to
understand alternative and cross-cultural perspectives in life. Her
journey with Ben is an enriching one of personal transformation. An
immensely positive book, this should be read by anyone wishing to
encourage the great reward that lie within the challenges of
Asperger's Syndrome.
