Sample Book Insights:
#1 For those who don’t read books all the way through, we offer this first chapter, set off from the rest of the book, that provides a general overview of what ADD is all about.
#2 Attention deficit disorder is a name for a collection of symptoms, some positive, some negative. It is not a disorder, but a trait that can be positive or negative. People with ADD have special gifts, even if they are hidden.
#3 There is an arbitrariness to the way we diagnose disorders. By the current DSM-IV definition, ADD does not exist. But the term ADHD includes both ADHD with hyperactivity and ADHD without hyperactivity, which means you can have ADHD without any signs of hyperactivity or impulsivity.
#4 Those with ADHD have a difficult time turning their great ideas into significant actions, and they often have a difficult time explaining themselves to others. They are often underachieving in school or at work, and they know they could be achieving at a higher level if only they could find the key.
