In this intriguing book, Ledgin carefully constructs a convincing case for the likelihood that Thomas Jefferson had Asperger’s Syndrome. He matches Jefferson’s behaviors with five diagnostic criteria for Asperger’s: social impairment, preoccupation with “special interests,” impairment in nonverbal communication, lack of emotional reciprocity, and inflexible adherence to non-functional routines. He also addresses other well-known signs of Asperger’s, such as failure to recognize social cues, need for calming pressure, and indifference to peer pressure.
