Críticas
"Fitzgerald's in-depth knowledge of Asperger Syndrome/ADHD allows him to offer the reader insightful explanations from many different perspectives such as neuropsychological, biological and genetic point of views. He draws very interesting parallels between the personalities discussed in the book and other prominent figures with similar traits.: (Dr. Viktoria Lyons, Psychologist, University College Dublin) "This study is of utmost significance to those who wish to understand the enigmatic nature of people with Asperger Syndrome. I enjoyed reading this journey through history and exploring the personalities of eleven creative and unconventional people. I will read it again and again. An excellent reference book." (P.D. Matthews, Executive Director of Irish Society for Autism, Founder and former President of World Autism Organisation)
Reseña del editor
This is a new scholarly narrative on artistic loners, creative misogynist and the eccentric personalities of some of history's most creative and inspiring adventurers, great thinkers, and writers whose lives and achievements are analyzed from an Asperger Syndrome perspective. The study examines the unique interplay between human creativity and the known disabilities afflicting individuals with Asperger and ADHD. There is a very close relationship between creativity and disability of one form or another. This has been recognized for thousands of years. Indeed Seneca stated that "no great genius has ever existed without some touch of madness" and John Dryden wrote "Great Wits are sure to Madness Near ally'd - and thin partitions do their bounds divide." In terms of the aetiology of creativity there is no doubt that genetic factors play a significant part. Persons with novelty / seeking personality traits, who have a genetic polymorphism called dopamine D4 show creativity of an artistic type or are great explorers. They are excited by the new, the unconventional and the innovative and examples here would be Ernest Shackleton and Arthur Koestler. Great creativity requires an unusual brain, a brain that is less integrated. It also requires personalities that are less balanced and outside the so called "normal personality". All these great creators paid a huge personal price for their creativity and for enriching our world.
