Ah yes, so it was.
Anywho, I know that Lewis Carroll is listed under posibly having had AS. There is a section on him in The Genesis of Artistic Creativity which is a whole book of case studies on famous people whom this author/psychologist diagnoses as having had AS.
But after having read the book, I don't recommend it highly. The man who wrote it-- despite that he may be correct in many instances-- reads into the actions and creative projects of his famous subjects too much. Reaks of old school Psychology. ICK!
But if you can get past the author and just read the facts about the people, I think he's right in many occasions. Though some others I couldn't quite tell.
