Being special, not like everyone else, is the basis of human nature; and this dissimilarity is what unites us. Andrew Solomon started from this premise when he began collecting materials for the book. This is a story about parents coping with deafness, dwarfism, Down syndrome, autism, schizophrenia and multiple mental and physical disabilities of their children; with child geniuses, children conceived as a result of violence, juvenile delinquents and transgender people. Any of these features can separate a child and his family from the world; Meanwhile, all these families are united by the experience gained when its members tried to find new boundaries of the normal. And in each chapter, the author meticulously documents episodes when love triumphed over prejudice. Over 10 years, Andrew Solomon interviewed more than three hundred complex families; and under this cover is the eloquent answer of ordinary people to the question: how to accept a dear person if he is not like everyone else? Andrew Solomon - professor of clinical psychology at Columbia University Medical Center, lecturer at Yale University, TED lecturer, author of articles for the New York Times and New Yorker, former head of the American PEN Center. The publishing layout is saved in PDF A4 format.
