<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Originally published in hardcover in slightly different form by Pantheon Books ... in 1994, and subsequently published in paperback by Touchstone ... in 1995"--T.p. verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Groundbreaking and comprehensive, <i>Driven to Distraction </i>has been a lifeline to the approximately eighteen million Americans who are thought to have ADHD. Now the bestselling book is revised and updated with current medical information for a new generation searching for answers. <p/>Through vivid stories and case histories of patients--both adults and children--Hallowell and Ratey explore the varied forms ADHD takes, from hyperactivity to daydreaming. They dispel common myths, offer helpful coping tools, and give a thorough accounting of all treatment options as well as tips for dealing with a diagnosed child, partner, or family member. But most importantly, they focus on the positives that can come with this "disorder"--including high energy, intuitiveness, creativity, and enthusiasm.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A very readable, highly informative and helpful book." -<i>The New York Times Book Review </i> <p/>"Conversational in tone, encyclopedic in content, and, best of all, utterly convincing because of its grounding in clinical experience, <i>Driven to Distraction </i>should make Attention Deficit Disorder comprehensible even to the most distractible reader."--Peter D.
