Einstein, Newton had autism: Study

Author: mom_to_one, 02 23rd, 2008

LONDON: They were certainly creative geniuses. But what was the common trait in Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton? Well, both had “autism”.A leading psychiatrist at Trinity College in Dublin has claimed that both Einstein and Newton displayed signs of autism spectrum disorders, including Asperger syndrome, which were the same as those associated with creative genius.

Einstein, who is credited with developing the theory of relativity, and Newton, who discovered the laws of gravity, had those traits to varying degrees, according to Professor Michael Fitzgerald.

In fact, Newton, he said, was known to work non-stop for three consecutive days without recognising day or night, often forgetting to eat, and Einstein worked in a patent office because he was too disruptive to get a university job.

According to Prof Fitzgerald, other leading figures in the fields of politics, art and literature like Charles de Gaulle, George Orwell, Beethoven, Mozart, Hans Christian Andersen and Immanuel Kant also had autism.

He came to the conclusion after comparing the characteristics of around 1,600 people he has diagnosed with ASDs and the known biographical details of famous people.

Olivia tied her own shoes!

Olivia

Just a quick update.  Olivia tied her own shoes, yesterday!  She got a new pair of Reeboks with the circles on the bottom of them.  She has an extreme fascination with shoes, to the point where she will stop a complete stranger and ask to see his/her shoes up close including the bottoms of the soles.  Anyway, she tied them both and is very, very proud.  We have been seeing good progress since we started using the AF-x a couple of months ago.  It is natural nutrition that is sprayed under the tongue.  Olivia actually looks forward to getting her “shot” before bedtime.

PCA-Rx

We used this Heavy Metal Detox product, PCA-Rx, and it helped Olivia right away.  We started with just 2 sprays and built up to 4.  Within a couple of days she said that she wanted to go to her own bed.  She had been on our floor for over 6 months!  Then she started to dress herself!  This is at age five (diagnosed autistic at 2 1/2).  I bought it at www.helpyourautisticchild.com.   They seem to have the cheapest price.
