I must be too much of a linear thinker. This book seems very scatter shot. I guess I get the author’s point that people are different. That the way our world operates does not let some use their talents to best effect. And that we should be aware of that and make adjustments and also advocate for what each individual and ourselves need.
Nerenberg throws autism, ADHD, schizophrenia, synthesia, sensitivity, dyslexia, depression, anxiety and I don’t remember what else into one big group of conditions that can be helped by awareness and advocacy. Probably true but I need something more concrete.
