Emotions aren't universally pre-programmed in our brains and bodies.... NeuroTribes: The Legacy of Autism and How to Think Smarter About People Who Think Differently...

In truth, it is all of these things and more - and the future of our society depends on our understanding it.Following on from his groundbreaking article 'The Geek Syndrome', Wired reporter Steve Silberman unearths the secret history of autism, long suppressed by the same clinicians who became famous for discovering it, and finds surprising answers to the crucial question of why the number of diagnoses has soared in recent years....
