I thought this book would be quite dated since it's from long ago, but it actually covers a variety of different cases of adhd that I found really relatable. I skipped through anything regarding children or cases that didn't fit me, but I'd recommend it for a general overview.

An interesting book for those of us interested in ADD. Using a lot of examples, the authors convey how ADD can look in different cases, in children and adults. It doesn't use too much technical language, so it's a good book for experts and people who know nothing about the disorder.

A good survey, and probably has saved a bunch of people from a lot of trouble and sadness.

Read this for my final assignment last semester. This book presented with nice format which made me copied it from the original library book and save it for countless reread. LOL.

Written with naration and dialogs for the most part, this book make us understand that ADHD is not only what we've presumed. The examples make us wonder whether we actually have ADD or not. LOL.

Listened to the audiobook in one sitting (2 hours). It was very informative and easily digestible!

This is a decent resource although it contains some dated language. Don’t feel compelled to read it from cover to cover. Use the table of contents to find what you need. It covers child and adult ADHD, signs and symptoms, treatments, biology, etc. Depending on what you know or what you want to learn, you can skip sections. I found the chapter on subtypes and the the one on treatment particularly interesting.
