I've been doing some reading this morning on the ancient history of Autism and thought I'd share. I'm not sure what I make of all of these reviews but I like the idea that our ancient ancestors would have valued autistic individuals for their specialist knowledge. Feel free to share your thoughts on these articles.

Lorna Wong wrote about that I think. She considered the myth of the changeling as possibly related to autism
Lorna Wing or Lorna Wong? I’ll have to look it up on google.
