About this talk

This lecture uncovers a wealth of original, creative and unconventional uses of figurative language, suggesting people with different mindsets have a different set of norms for language use. Rather than considering one set of norms as deficient, neurodivergent and neurotypical people need to invest into understanding each other and the diversity of human minds.
