This book has great information for those who know nothing about this disorder. It was well written and had many insightful suggestions to the readers.
A very good book that helped me understand the behaviors that make me and my children ADD. I highly recommend it.
As the mother of a "hyperactive" child and founder of the first parent support group for the parents of such children in Germany, I can fully endorse this book. To anyone who suspects that their child suffers from AD/HD, this book is an absolute must. It not only gives information on the symptoms of the syndrom, info on medicative treatments, but also valuable tips on structuring.
The book provides accurate information on the ADHD child in general, but I found it to have little information on adolescent children. My search for this specific information was the reason I bought it, so I was somewhat disappointed.
