about
1
in
every
10,000
children.

ten
years,
rates
had
skyrocketed,
and
the

was
declaring

epidemic.Unstrange
Mindsdocuments
Grinker's
quest
across
the
globe
to
discover
the
surprising
truth

is
so
much
more
common
today.
Grinker

that
the
identification
and
treatment

as
on
science.

moving
stories
and
informed
by
the
latest
science,Unstrange

a
powerful
testament
to
a
father's
