Dyslexia

In "The Dyslexic Advantage" (2011) Brock and Fernette Eide layout what is known and not known about dyslexia. Their main point is that while dyslexics may have trouble reading quickly and well,this is the meaning of the term dyslexia, their difficulties in reading often give them advantages in other areas of cognition.
The Eides list these other areas, such as high level ability in spatial tasks, but, most importantly for me, they also list the areas of the brain that have been found to be nexuses for certain classes of processing. I guess that I will have to learn the names of these areas and stop avoiding this learning. My underlying series of questions are about the genetics of brain organization. My intuition says that there are important lessons to be learned in connecting genetics and the functional organization of the brain.
I will extend the review of the actual book when I finish it.
