But over time, this developed into a completely different book: a clarion call to embrace neurodiversity in the fight against the extinction crisis. Across Britain, 15% of people are thought to be neurodivergent. In the process of writing Neurodivergent, By Nature, Harkness discovered that an estimated 30% of conservation employees were neurodivergent. Why? Continue reading...
