For Those who dont know, its a book about an autist boy. A genious one, and its really interesting.

I have the book downstairs, I bought it 3 years ago and I read it in a few nights, I absolutely loved the book. I like how the chapters don't go in normal numerical order (1,2,3...) it goes up in prime numbers (1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 etc.)

He has really captured the way that an autistic person would think (by the way, most autistic people are very talented and very very intelligent roy).

Depends on the type of autism.


Not really, a person can be autistic, and be smarter than you, but be slow in math, although there has been one autistic basketball player super star, ever heard of him?
