#23 Dyslexic Advantage" CH4 Review: Are Dyslexia and Autism opposite ends of the spectrum? "

Is Dyslexia the other end of the spectrum to Autism? Research from Dr Manuel Casanova quoted in The Dyslexic Advantage seems to point to this. Caused by how close or far our brain neurons are structured.

Personal reflections on how this might be relevent to parents or tutors of dyslexic teens. #DyslexiaExplored
