Neurodiversity in Silence: Understanding Dual Diagnosis in Autism and Hearing Impairment

In a world built for words, Neurodiversity in Silence reveals the powerful, often invisible experiences of children and adults living with both Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and hearing impairment.Through the lens of neuroscience, education, and human empathy, Dr. Hina Hadayat Ali and Dr. Hina Fazil invite us to see beyond diagnosis, and into a deeper understanding of minds that communicate differently. This groundbreaking book uncovers the profound challenges of dual diagnosis: the diagnostic tools that miss the mark, the systems that fail to connect, and the educators left without a map.Yet at its core, Neurodiversity in Silence is a story of resilience and reimagining, of children who express through gesture, image, and sensation, and of caregivers and professionals who build bridges across silence.From brain development and sensory processing to multimodal communication and inclusive classrooms, this book equips readers with evidence-based insights and actionable strategies.
