The Neurodiversity Book

The Neurodiversity Book deconstructs the mythology of normal and exposes the neurodivergent treatment industrial complex that is behind what is now being called an epidemic: a rising population of (often late) diagnosed neurodivergent people.

Who is The Neurodiversity Book for?

  1. Neurodivergent individuals in need of coherence, not chaos
  2. Partners, parents, and leaders understanding how human systems actually operate
  3. Anyone who suspects the “neurodiversity movement” has failed to move anywhere

The Neurodiversity Book is your map, what you do with it is your navigation.
