Neurodiversity : a very short introduction / Robert Chapman, Sue Fletcher-Watson.

"Neurodiversity considers how people take in, process, and respond to information differently, and the ways in which we experience the world and form relationships with one another. This Very Short Introduction looks at neurodiversity in a variety of settings including education, workplace, health and social care. The authors detail the emergence of the neurodiversity movement and position it within not just research and practice but also a broader politics of collective liberation. Robert Chapman is Assistant Professor in Critical Neurodiversity Studies at Durham University and author of Empire of Normality: Neurodiversity and Capitalism. Sue Fletcher-Watson is Personal Chair in Developmental Psychology at the University of Edinburgh and Director of the Salvesen Mindroom Research Centre. Her books include Autism: A new introduction to psychological theory and current debate"-- Provided by publisher.
