Uscherben the learned man?


It is generally believed that a learned man is a person perfect in all respects. If a child at an early age is the time for books, computers, musical instruments, If interested in learning makes it, as they say peers in <botanica>, it is only sold to parents : <moy son (moya doci) constantly uchitsa> something. But that obsessive passion for learning-in a sense-say, and like any extreme is available maybe a little.

Some time ago, my friend, a young biologist, all the time devoted Science, heard at it broke reply : <me! Do you like to learn. You may bastard! >

Indeed, in the exclusive education is something painfully Rights separating from the rest of the people. Recently, the researchers drew the so-called Asperger syndrome, or syndrome scientists. People who suffer them have pronounced ability in the study of foreign languages, they easily remember facts, quotations, dates, jongliruut redoubtable figures, but at the same time show blatant failure in their dealings with other people. They isolated alone; Apparently their life seems devoid of emotion.

On average, almost every 5000th child suffers from Asperger syndrome. Boys had struck eight times more often than girls. These children are markedly from the earliest years. They are linked to speak before three years, and often ridiculously analytical in their chatter. But knowledge is rapidly internalized them, rarely used for communication with the other children : they listen to or watch, record, but not like someone to talk to.

As early as 1944, the Austrian physician Hans Asperger described as a kind of psychological development, but only recently in the United States began a thorough examination of nearly a thousand people allegedly suffering from it. Neirologi Fred Volkmar and Ami Klein assembled people from all parts of the country to explore their ability to communicate, their affection, their family heritage activity in the brain.

The long neglect of the syndrome understandable. The fact is that patients suffering from them are far from failure. Most lacked mind and the ability to find niche in society, in which they have conducted their talents and avoid continuous communication with other people (this syndrome should not be confused with autism - a disease which often prevents people even find a place in life).

Asperger syndrome is usually inherited. It can be assumed that, in our country, the number of people suffering from them is much higher than the average, But this has <prinuditionaya selektia> first half of the century, when people are energetic, socially active <stradali for ideu> and death, and the heroes of our story with deep irony referring to the notion <collegu>, absolutely without any public protest have inflicted any form of life. Their behaviour was not the slightest cowardice or submissive, It ambivalence absolute disregard for any <socialnam zennostam>, and towards a social at all. The alternative, they could ask to call Monday Thursday, and Thursday Monday. Really asked them only their tiny pietist, OOD in their brain-pietist, which is chasm failed vast reservoir of knowledge of astronomy, archaeology, biology, mathematics, philosophy. Likewise it is easier for people to survive in the season <velikih perelomov>. Naturally, the next generations of their growing. The filled in the cold, "will treat with an insight rather work than live.

According to a number of experts, Asperger syndrome, to a greater or lesser extent suffered virtually all the scientists and writers whom we call spiritual teachers twentieth century. Your immediately appear <uznik bibliotek> Borges and Prust, zamknuvshisa from the world outside komnata-kreposti, Wittgenstein, proiznosivshi to their students lengthy philosophical monologues, to pay little attention to the audience, and Joyce, obviously expecting from the surrounding treason ... The list goes on. Indifferent to the usual jiteiski joy, they wanted only his work, his talent and a little-humanity. This is <vrozdenne nicsheantsy>. In absolute naturalness they are being bypassed by the people outside people, in excess of people anywhere, just not all together. Not surprisingly, they were often told that they <none from peace sego>.

Research brain cortex by using aderno-spinovogo tomograph showed that patients suffering from Asperger syndrome, perceived wrong person as inanimate object. <When they look to the person to another person, the subject is not the same plot of a large brain, it is responsible for the perception of a human face to the rest of the people, while some other area : usually recognizes living facilities. Social apathy is a problem for these people, because they saw the brain to process the information> says Volkmar. Life others not affect them. They subconsciously relate to them as rocks, trees, or at least <mnogouwajaemym skapam>.

Medicines against the disease not. Doctors may suppress tablets only its accompanying manifestations : depression, schizophrenia, increased aggressiveness. Definitely helps only early goal to promote the child's ability to communicate with other people, as well as the establishment of schools, which will be collected by children affected by the syndrome. Here they will learn not only the normal school subjects, which were given to them was commendable, but also to share their ability to understand other people's feelings and to emotional life.

So everyone can be in the best educated, but an exceptional education available to the people, to some extent, the sick, ready for abstract knowledge prezreti all mundane delights pozwolitiona others?
