Asperger's Syndrome often characterized as a form of high-functioning autism is a poorly defined and little-understood neurological disorder. The people who suffer from the condition are usually highly intelligent and as often as not capable of extraordinary feats of memory calculation and musicianship. In this wide-ranging report on Asperger's Lawrence Osborne introduces us to those who suffer from the syndrome and to those who care for them as patients and as family. And more importantly he speculates on how with our need to medicate and categorize every conceivable mental state we are perhaps adding to their isolation their sense of alienation from the normal. -This is a book about the condition and the culture surrounding Asperger's Syndrome as opposed to a guide about how to care for your child with Aspergers. -Examines American culture and the positive and negative perspectives on the condition. Some parents hope their child will be the next Glenn Gould or Bill Gates others worry that their child is abnormal and overreact.
