    Good.

    I liked looking at my strengths and weaknesses with respects to how my brain works. This is a good starting point for improving my organizational skills. I also could see my problems with depression affect these different executive functions. Fortunately, in recent times, it generally hasn’t been so bad, but depression is really a “hardcore” problem. The only way to improve executive functioning of a significantly depressed person would be to find some way of alleviating, or better still, eradicating their depression - and that is not easy. There is no foolproof, step by step way of achieving this. I wonder if my personality plays a part since I scored high in N on my test. But overall, the definitions of neurodiversity which I think are often misinterpreted were clearly explained and the little 'Takehome Messages' at the end of each chapter were interesting as summaries. 3.8 stars.
