A new term has emerged from the disability movement in the past decade to help change the way we think about neurological disorders: Neurodiversity. The number of categories of illnesses listed by the American Psychiatric Association has tripled in the past fifty years. With so many people affected by our growing “culture of disabilities,” it no longer makes sense to hold on to the deficit-ridden idea of neuropsychological illness.With the sensibility of Oliver Sacks and Kay Redfield Jamison, psychologist Thomas Armstrong offers a revolutionary perspective that reframes many neuropsychological disorders as part of the natural diversity of the human brain rather than as definitive illnesses. Neurodiversity emphasizes their positive dimensions, showing how people with ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other conditions have inherent evolutionary advantages that, matched with the appropriate environment or ecological niche, can help them achieve dignity and wholeness in their lives.  Publisher:  DaCapo Lifelong/Perseus.  ISBN 10:  0738213543;  ISBN-13: 978-0738213545.

Explains how the real aims of education have been lost in the current push to raise test scores through what Dr. Armstrong calls "the academic achievement discourse.".  Recommends that we return to the great developmental thinkers of the past, including Piaget, Montessori, Dewey, Steiner, to create a new discourse based on how children develop through the stages of life, rather than how they perform academically.  Suggests that early childhood development focus on play, elementary school gear the curriculum toward learning how the world works, middle schools create programs that develop the young adolescent's social, emotional, and meta-cognitive growth, and high schools emphasize preparing students to live independently in the real world.  Foreword by David Elkind.   Publisher:  Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development.  ISBN-10: 141660457X; ISBN-13: 978
