Reviews

"A highly readable text about an often misunderstood disorder... Irrespective of which side of the debate the reader champions, there's little doubt that Brown makes a compelling case." Dennis Palumbo, The Lancet "Thorough and compassionate. Consider it essential reading if you are concerned about a child or an adult who may be struggling with this syndrome." Mary Beth Regan, Baltimore Sun "This intelligent book does a better job of explaining AD/HD than any book in recent memory. It's a must-read for anyone with an interest in AD/HD, whether of a personal or professional nature." Kathleen Nadeau, ADDitude Magazine"
