About this book

Autism in History: The Case of Hugh Blair of Borgue by Frith, Uta. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780631220893.

This engaging story of an eighteenth century Scottish laird whose brief arranged marriage was annulled on the grounds of his mental capacity - which seen through modern eyes can be identified as autism. It is a story of villainy and innocence, and provides a fascinating historical context to which the latest theories on autism are applied.
