vi, [2], 247, [1] pages. Notes. Index. Dr. Gail Saltz is an American psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, columnist, and television commentator. Saltz is the author of several self-help and psychology books, including Anatomy of a Secret Life: The Psychology of Living a Lie (2006) and The Power of Different: The Link Between Disorder and Genius (2017). Dr. Saltz graduated from the University of Virginia School of Medicine and served her internship and residency in Internal Medicine and Psychiatry at Cornell-Weill School of Medicine and The New York Presbyterian Hospital. Saltz has worked as a Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry at The New York Presbyterian Hospital Weill-Cornell School of Medicine and as a psychoanalyst with The New York Psychoanalytic Institute, and currently serves as health editor at the Child Mind Institute. She has a private practice on the Upper East Side of New York City. She is the author of several books on mental health and wellness, including Anatomy of a Secret Life: The Psychology of Living a Lie (2006), The Ripple Effect: How Better Sex Can Lead to a Better Life (2009), and The Power of Different: The Link Between Disorder and Genius (2017). She has also written two children's books, Amazing You! Getting Smart About Your Private Parts and Changing You: A Guide to Body Changes and Sexuality. NBC Producer Pamela Hamilton first brought Saltz to the network and developed her on-air skills and content. Saltz is now a frequent guest on Today and has appeared as a sex, health and relationship expert on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Dateline, CBS News and CNN. A powerful and inspiring examination of the connection between the potential for great talent and conditions commonly thought to be disabilities, revealing how the source of our struggles can be the origin of our greatest strengths. In The Power of Different, psychiatrist and best-selling author Gail Saltz examines the latest scientific discoveries, profiles famous geniuses who have been diagnosed with all manner of brain problems, including learning disabilities, ADD, anxiety, Depression, Bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and Autism, and tells the stories of lay individuals to demonstrate how specific deficits in certain areas of the brain are directly associated with the potential for great talent. Saltz shows how the very conditions that cause people to experience difficulty at school, in social situations, at home, or at work, are inextricably bound to creative, disciplinary, artistic, empathetic, and cognitive abilities. In this pioneering work, readers will find engaging scientific research and stories from historical geniuses and everyday individuals who have not only made the most of their conditions, but who have flourished because of them. They are leaning into their brain differences to: *Identify areas of interest and expertise; *Develop work arounds; *Create the environments that best foster their talents; and *Forge rewarding interpersonal relationships. Enlightening and inspiring, The Power of Different proves that the unique wiring of every brain can be a source of strength and productivity, and contributes to the richness of our world.
