Neuroscience and Literature

Catalog description

Explores a range of psychological, behavioral, and neurological conditions through careful reading of literature that represents neurodiversity. Examines how narratives about neurodiversity register the ongoing efforts of social and political movements to expand awareness about the lives of people whose minds and brains are not neurotypical. Reflects on ways to change social structures, especially in education and medicine, in order to make the world more inclusive of neurodifference.
