The fourth edition of David Grant’s bestseller is an insightful
exploration of neurodiversity, illuminating the lived experiences of
the estimated 15–20% of the population who are neurodivergent.
Taking a lifestyle approach, Grant provides a compassionate
understanding of diagnostic categories, including dyslexia, dyspraxia,
dyscalculia, ADHD and autism, with particular attention to
often-overlooked female experiences and those without formal
diagnoses. This fully revised edition features three new chapters on
neurodiversity, autism and mental health, alongside substantially
updated content on dyslexia, visualization, sleep, creativity and
sports. Through authentic first-person accounts, the book examines
both the differences and similarities across diagnostic categories
while offering historical context and evolutionary interpretations.
Complementing scientific understanding with personal narratives,
That’s the Way I Think creates a comprehensive portrait of
neurodivergent life that challenges misconceptions and celebrates
neurodiversity as a positive social concept. This accessible resource
serves multiple audiences: individuals who are or suspect they may be
neurodivergent, their families and partners, and professionals who
interact with neurodivergent people daily, including educators, mental
health practitioners, support staff and managers. It provides
essential insights for anyone seeking to understand and appreciate the
rich complexity of neurodivergent experiences.
