PRODUCT INFORMATION

Description

40 per cent of self-made millionaires are dyslexic.

Dyslexia does not equal stupidity. For many, it’s a superpower. Think Steve Jobs, Henry Ford, Steven Spielberg and Sir Richard Branson.

The Dyslexic Edge challenges the narrative that views dyslexia as a deficit or impediment to success, presenting compelling research to demonstrate quite the opposite. By delving into the lives and experiences of some of the best-known dyslexic minds worldwide, Jamie Waller and Dr Helen Taylor highlight the distinct advantage that dyslexic thinking brings. From billionaires to budding visionaries, they provide an illuminating deep-dive into the mind and creativity of the dyslexic thinker and offer actionable insights to help the reader apply these frameworks to their own success.

Dyslexic thinking is limitless. And, crucially, it can be implemented by anyone.

Critic Reviews

‘I spent years telling my dyslexic daughter “dyslexia is a gift” . . . this book is full of such inspiration.’

-- Davina McCall, TV presenter and mum

‘This book is something I wish I had when growing up with dyslexia. It will 100 per cent inspire parents and children and demonstrate that dyslexia is not just negative.’

-- Zack George, UK’s Fittest Man and TV personality

‘Like many, I didn’t think that dyslexia had positive attributes. However, this book has changed my thinking. Dyslexic thinking can be an advantage to many, not just those with dyslexia and this book is a great resource to learn dyslexic thinking and implement it for your own success.’
