Albert Einstein was an autistic-savant, meaning he was very knowledgeable in certain fields of interest, but was completely incapable of learning things outside of his interest-fields. Einstein had a lot of trouble interacting socially, and relating to other people. He was completely uncommunicative until the age of 3, and then started speaking in an echoing pattern called "echolalia." Savants are autistic people who have certain areas of expertise. The ones who aren't savants are considered "profoundly autistic" and have more pronounced cognitive impairments. About 25% of autistics never develop speech.
Autistic people are no more special than anyone else. Although savants tend to be Autistic, and Autism can give people advantages such as 'special interests' that allow Autistic people to quickly become experts in subjects or unique understandings...Autistic people are still just like anyone else.

Savant people are caused in two ways: 1. Most of autistic savants are somehow disabled at the birth. Many savants cant talk properly, or even dress themselves. 2. If normal person is hit in the head, or having a brain damage, he might wake up as a savant. These people are also disabled, or have deen intelectually set to the level of an eight-year old. by the way, I'm not really an English speaker, so don't wonder if i wrote anything stupid.
