Thomas Armstrong’s The Power of Neurodiversity is an uplifting read that flips the script on how we usually think about conditions like ADHD, autism, and dyslexia. Instead of focusing on what’s “wrong,” Armstrong highlights the strengths and advantages that come with different kinds of brains.
What I liked most is how hopeful the book feels. Armstrong shows that challenges like trouble with reading, attention, or social interaction often come paired with unique talents—like creativity, problem-solving, or big-picture thinking. He also gives practical ideas for how schools, workplaces, and families can better support neurodivergent people, which makes the book feel useful, not just inspiring.
It’s not overly technical, so it’s easy to follow, but it does make you rethink how society labels people. If you’re a teacher, parent, or just curious about neurodiversity, this book is a great reminder that difference isn’t a weakness—it’s a strength.
