This was an interesting article on several levels. The author refers to Simon Baron-Cohen's work on autism and his three brain theory.
He believes there are 3 kinds of brains E (empathising), S (systemising) and B (Balanced). Cohen's runs the Autism Research Center at Cambridge and claims parents of autistic/aspergers children tend to have BOTH parents with strong S brains. Does anyone here have aspergers or know someone well enough that they know there parents well? or worked with kids who have it etc?
