ADHD. dyslexia. autism. the number of illness categories listed by
the American Psychiatric Association has tripled in the last fifty
years. With so many people affected, it is time to revisit our
perceptions on this "culture of disabilities." Bestselling author,
psychologist, and educator Thomas 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," "The Power of Neurodiversity" is a must for parents,
teachers, and anyone who is "differently brained."
