"Recently, a hereditary sub-type of congenital prosopagnosia with a very high prevalence rate of 2.5% has been identified." http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1348/174866407X231001/abstract;jsessionid=0E1E3A1E3E97AFA7EED6DDAC3374885C.d03t02?systemMessage=Wiley+Online+Library+will+be+disrupted+on+11+May+from+10%3A00-12%3A00+BST+%2805%3A00-07%3A00+EDT%29+for+essential+maintenance http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1348/174866407X231001/...
