"What an interesting read. It was fascinating to get inside Jeremy's head and see what makes him tick. I learned so much."Travis MeadowsAward winning singer songwriter"I was completely captivated with Wired for Genius. One minute I was laughing at a humorous anecdote, and the next I was reevaluating every social interaction I've had in my life, wondering if I may have misjudged somebody with these same characteristics. It affirmed to me that the world can learn a great deal from people who live on the autism spectrum, the most important lesson being understanding."Matt Mangano, bassist for the Grammy award-winning Zac Brown BandIn this book, J. Matthew Jacobson covers his four decade long battle with social awkwardness and abstract thinking. The author recounts his personal life and events that have culminated into his self-realization and exploration of High Functioning Autism (formerly known as Asperger's Syndrome) and the Autism Spectrum Disorder that has lurked in his shadows, terrorizing relationships and maximizing his creative genius. He explores the various traits that have plagued his social interactions, from Auditory Processing Disorder and mild Face Blindness, to Mind Blind Blindness. These memoirs give readers a very personal insight into the obsessive hyper-focusing that has been observed in Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, and Charles Darwin. He explains how this 'switch' gets flipped on, what causes it, and how it has led to little-known breakthroughs like the invention of the Light S.A.B.I.R. (a handheld non-lethal rising and falling beam of light) and the Laws governing the Spherical Nature of the Universe, the understanding of why Pi's decimal has no end, and electron orbitals of predicted element's, among other things.
