ABOUT THE BOOK

Why can humans alone invent? In this book,
psychologist and world renowned autism expert
Simon Baron-Cohen puts forward a bold new
theory: because we can identify patterns,
specifically if-and-then patterns. And he argues
that the genes for this unique ability overlap with
the genes for autism.

From the first musical instrument to the
agricultural, industrial and digital revolutions,
Baron-Cohen shows how this unique ability has
driven human progress for 70,000 years. By
linking one of our greatest human strengths with
a condition that is so often misunderstood, The
Pattern Seekers challenges us to think differently
about those who think differently
