Originalni opis knjige
The Legacy of Autism and How to Think Smarter About People Who Think Differently. What is autism: a devastating developmental disorder, a lifelong disability, or a naturally occurring form of cognitive difference akin to certain forms of genius? In truth, it is all of these things and more. Following on from his groundbreaking article ‚The Geek Syndrome‘, Wired reporter Steve Silberman unearths the secret history of autism, long suppressed by the same clinicians who became famous for discovering it, and finds surprising answers to the crucial question of why the number of diagnoses has soared in recent years.
