There’s a couple of books I read (pre-diagnosis) that really changed my perception. I’ll have to reread them with fresh eyes now:
Grooming, Gossip and the Evolution of Language (Robin Dunbar)
The Wisdom of Crowds (James Surowiecki)
Survivors Club (Ben Sherwood)
These three are in a select group of books I’ve actually read cover to cover. Dunbar’s book is fascinating, dense and really hard to put down. Sherwood’s book is about how people survive in a life or death crisis, and from what I recall, a lot of those traits are ADD traits, too.
