Nuts, Nerds, & SavantsNeurodiversity & Creativityby Jimmy HustonAbout the BookA fascinating exploration of the link between the many geniuses who created our civilization and the creativity that comes from their neurodiversity. Often termed disabilities or disorders, perhaps these unique qualities are the building blocks for super-abilities, sometimes leading to earth-shattering breakthroughs in both science and the arts. The book connects these geniuses to the everyday people who also deal with neurodiversity, encouraging them to explore and develop their special talents to improve the everyday lives of us all. There are many examples ranging from music and art to physics and philosophy, naming the masters and the world leaders who succeeded, not despite their neurodiversity, but because of it.
