Professor Hale has produced a ground-breaking and timely book which I recommend. It fillsa vital gap in current knowledge, and it challenges us to use the information sensitively andintelligently in researching, understanding, and applying it for ourselves.It will also be of general interest because it includes science-based advice about genetics, allergies, generalhealth, and some of the ways humans can have differently wired™ brains. It is illuminatingand written from a new sympathetic and humane perspective.Ian writes as an author and expert medical scientist who is on the spectrum himself and istherefore in an ideal position to contribute insights into this subject.
