Reviews

"Dr. Tuckman's book Understand Your Brain, Get More Done provides realistic, practical, and useful information for those with adult ADHD. Not only is the book enlightening, but it also fun to read. The exercises in the book are educational, easy to complete, and give great insight into the world of adult ADHD. I have recommended Dr. Tuckman's companion book More Attention, Less Deficit to my patients and clients, and I have listed it as a recommended resource in my books due to its straightforward nature and wealth of information. I will do the same with Understand Your Brain, Get More Done for the same reasons. They are both outstanding books." --Stephanie Moulton Sarkis PhD, NCC, LMHC, psychotherapist and author, 10 Simple Solutions to Adult ADD, Making the Grade with ADD, ADD and Your Money, and Adult ADD: A Guide for the Newly Diagnosed "Dr. Tuckman has provided us with a richly detailed discussion of ADHD in adults and especially how it should be managed, directly written for the adult with ADHD in mind. Wonderfully supportive and informative, this book provides countless recommendations for addressing the myriad symptoms of poor self-control and time management, inattention and disorganization, and impulsive and careless behavior that afflicts nearly every major domain of life activities for adults. The book should prove enormously instructive for both adults with ADHD and for clinicians who specialize in its diagnosis and management." --Russell A. Barkley, PhD, ADHD expert, researcher, author of numerous books
