It deserves to be read by anyone with a personal or professional interest in ADHD. Parents should read it to become inoculated against the many myths and simplistic ideas about ADHD that they will encounter. Professionals should read it as a stimulus to examining recent and classic primary source documents on the topic. For either audience, the subtitle’s description of the book as a “guide” is true in the fullest sense of the word.” (Metapsychology, 9 August 2011) “Overall the book provides an excellent platform, and the impressive list of references means that the reader can explore much farther in their area of interest.” (The Psychologist, 1 July 2011) Review ‘ The Science of ADHD is a felicitous mix of the scholarly and popular. I would certainly recommend it as a valuable handbook for informed parents and professionals engaged in the management of children with ADHD. At the same time, senior students and researchers about to undertake work in the area would also greatly benefit from it.’ — Emeritus Professor John Bradshaw , Monash University, Australia ‘This is an accessible and sane account of our knowledge about ADHD. The combination of personal experience and scientific understanding make it an attractive and helpful account for all those wanting to learn.’ — Professor Eric Taylor , Kings College London Institute of Psychiatry, UK See all Editorial Reviews Download Here If you liked this post, buy me a beer.
