About this product
Product Information
For everyone whose heart was touched by the movie Rain Man, here is the inspiring true story of an exceptional autistic savant whose musical gifts thrill audiences the world over.Ever since he was born-blind and weighing less than two pounds-Tony DeBlois has been defying the odds and wildly surpassing others' expectations. Diagsed early on as autistic, at two years old his talent for music was revealed when he played Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star on a toy pia. Going on to graduate with hors from the Berklee College of Music, today Tony leads an improvisational jazz ensemble and performs solo shows from Dublin to Taipei and even Washington, D.C.'s Kennedy Center. Some Kind of Genius weaves details of Tony's amazing musical accomplishments--he can play 20 instruments and his sixth CD, also titled Some Kind of Genius, is set to be released at the time of this book-with a fascinating look at savant syndrome, in which a person with certain developmental limitations exhibits brilliance in some other aspect of his life. Tony's fiercely devoted mother, Janice, also tells of her own crusade-t only for the rights of her son but on behalf of all those with special needs.Tony's story will hold special appeal for all who have seen him on the Today show and Entertainment Tonight; watched the Lifetime movie based on his life, Journey of the Heart; heard him in concert; or read about him in Dr. Darold Treffert's book Extraordinary People: Understanding Savant Syndrome.

Through no fault of the seller, the book didn't arrive. The envelope it was supposed to be in did, but no book, alas. The seller was very kind and investigated at their end while I investigated at mine, but no book was to be found anywhere. A mystery!
Anyway, they promptly refunded the purchase price and I will support them again if another book of interest appears in their store. Would 100% recommend purely because of their kindness and understanding. Thank you.
