THE SUDDEN SAVANT: A New Form of Extraordinary Abilities
Savant syndrome previously has been characterized as either congenital or acquired. A report in this issue of WMJ, however, describes sudden savant syndrome, in which neurotypical persons have the sudden emergence of savant skills without underlying disability or brain injury and without prior interest or ability in the newly emerged skill areas. These skills include music, mathematics, language, and art – which is the case with MF, whose artwork is featured on the cover.
