520 In "The Gift of Neurodiversity", Armstrong argues that we
have been too quick to pathologise brain differences.
Indeed, in recent years, we have re-classified these
differences, labeling many of them "disorders." What
science actually suggests is that there are many different
ways for our brains to be wired, and that there are actual
"gifts" or "strengths" attached to some of these
differences.
