The Daniel Tammet biography, Born on a Blue Day, is a fascinating book. He's an autistic savant, and high-functioning. The book is a sensitive telling of his struggles with Asperger's Syndrome and early epilepsy, his amazing mental powers, and his successful attempts to build an independent life. He is a Christian, and the last chapter, where he tells about his conversion and explains his approach to worship, is simply beautiful.
