Overview"What is intelligence? What is the relationship between manual work and the development of neurons and synapses in the brain? Can manual work really help the reintegration of people with cognitive or mental disabilities? This book is a true story. That of a man, Maurice Vendre, who, at the end of the 1950s, hearing himself say, by a doctor specializing in trisomy 21, about his son, ""he is mentally deficient, he will remain the way he is"", decided that ""he would not remain so"". He founded AMIPI which has since grown. Today, AMIPI is made up of six factories in France which manufactures the electrical wiring systems fitted to high-end cars. Its 700 operators all have cognitive and mental disabilities (autism, trisomy 21, schizophrenia, etc.). They have, like all workers, a salary and constraints. AMIPI has one objective for them: reintegration into a ""classic"" environment. And it works! Neuropsychiatrist, Jean-Michel Oughourlian immersed himself in these factories, and brought back this book. His observation? ""In the hospital, they would be vegetables. The factory succeeds where psychiatric science has failed."""
