In this episode of Health411, host Dr. Jonathan Karp and producer Daniel Geller discuss the history, perception, and science of dyslexia in society. Although only categorized as a "disorder" in the late 19th century, dyslexia has more than likely been around for the entirety of human existence. Although those with this condition typically have difficulty with reading and writing, they are often more innately skilled in other areas such as creativity and "big-picture thinking", making the "disability" moniker quite obsolete.
