An annotated introductory reading list for neurodiversity by Zaneva, M, Coll-Martín, T, Héjja-Brichard, Y, Kalandadze, T, Kis, A, Koperska, A, Manalili, MAR, Mathy, A, Graham, CJ, Hollis, A, Ross, RM, Yeung, SK, Allen, V, Azevedo, F, Friedel, E, Fuller, S, Giannouli, V, Gjoneska, B, Hartmann, H, Korbmacher, M, Elsherif, MM, Zisk, AH

“…To address such barriers, we present an annotated reading list that was developed collaboratively by a neurodiverse group of researchers. The nine themes covered in the reading list are: the history of neurodiversity; ways of thinking about neurodiversity; the importance of lived experience; a neurodiversity paradigm for autism science; beyond deficit views of ADHD; expanding the scope of neurodiversity; anti-ableism; the need for robust theory and methods; and integration with open and participatory work. …”
