'This is not just another book. This is a great book... Although aimed at parents, [it] has something for everyone involved with ADHD kids; teachers; psychologists, doctors, and family.'-Pediatric News, "This is not just another book. This is a great book....Although aimed at parents, [it] has something for everyone involved with ADHD kids: teachers, psychologists, doctors, and family."--Pediatric News, "Russell Barkley might well be known as the patron saint of ADHD for all that he has done to advance our understanding of this fascinating condition. Dr. Barkley's name is synonymous with quality, integrity, and reliability. He is meticulous in his research and unfailing in his willingness to offer his time as well as his knowledge to all who ask for help. Anyone who writes about, researches, or lives with ADHD owes a deep debt to Dr. Barkley."--Edward M. Hallowell, MD, coauthor ofDriven to Distraction "This very clear and well-written guide is filled with useful strategies and all the reinforcement that ADHD parents need."--Jane Marks, author ofThe Hidden Children "Russell Barkley's extensive experience as clinician, researcher, and teacher really shows. This is the most up-to-date story on our understanding of ADHD and its practical management. The readable reviews would inform most therapists. Dr. Barkley shows parents the way toward a positive approach to ADHD, from which the whole family will benefit."--Judith L. Rapoport, MD, Chief, Child Psychiatry Branch, NIMH, Bethesda, Maryland, author ofThe Boy Who Couldn't Stop Washing, This is not just another book. This is a great book....Although aimed at parents, [it] has something for everyone involved with ADHD kids: teachers, psychologists, doctors, and family., "Russell Barkley, considered one of the leading authorities on attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), provides a clear and well-written guide that encourages, exhorts, and inspires parents. This book features pioneering research that provides new insight into preventing ADHD from becoming a major obstacle in a child's (and parent's) life."--Intervention in School and Clinic, "The book is easy to read and, in spite of its length at 320 pages, is well apportioned in its content and practical in its advice. Rich in anecdote and warm in understanding of the human experience of ADHD, this book should be a must for most parents....Dr. Barkley has produced a book that will be added to the list of practical, reasoned, well thought out and helpful resources for parents who are looking for it all in one place."--The Canadian Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Review "Of the many recent books available on this topic, this one seems the most comprehensive, up-to-date, authoritative, and readable. Although aimed at parents, it would be an excellent addition to the libraries of teachers, psychologists, pediatricians, and family physicians--anyone who works with children with ADHD."--Nursing Administration Quarterly "Accessible, scientifically based....As a starting point for parents, or for smaller libraries that can only afford one title, Barkley's book is the first choice; it offers details about finding the right kind of specialists, putting together a disciplinary program, coping with adolescents, and building positive relationships with school personnel."--Library Journal "I...warmly recommend it to selected parents, and also to professionals learning about how ADHD should be managed."--Clinical Child Psychology and Psychiatry "...an excellent resource for parents, clinicians, and teachers....The text is written in an informative yet informal style, which almost gives readers the impression that they are having a personal conversation with the author....The true value of the book lies in the author's ability to combine current theoretical perspectives with the most recent and relevant research findings into a text that functions both as a contemporary review for professionals and a practical guide for parents."--Child Psychology, Psychiatry "Barkley is addressing two quite different audiences--parents and professionals--and he does it very well. Parents can return to the book as they reach different points on their learning curve. And practitioners will find this book stimulating and at times challenging....The book could well serve as the text for a series of parent education sessions led by a school psychologist."--NASP Communique " Russell Barkley, considered one of the leading authorities on attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), provides a clear and well-written guide that encourages, exhorts, and inspires parents. This book features pioneering research that provides new insight into preventing ADHD from becoming a major obstacle in a child's (and parent's) life. Numerous techniques are offered for enhancing a child's school performance. ...Provides an excellent foundation for parent training and teacher inservice presentations. Parents will appreciate having this book on hand, and teachers will want a copy to show parents who are ready for a resource."--Intervention in School and Clinic "The majority of the book deals with the areas where parents do have the opportunity to make choices and have and impact on their children's functioning....This material is specific, practical, widely applicable, and supported by both clinical and research experience. From the pediatric therapist's perspective, this book has a great deal to offer....an outstanding achievement. Its authoritative and complete contents, combined with a very reasonable price for the trade paperback, make it a highly worthwhile addition to the library of any child-oriented professional." --Physical and Occupational Therapy In Pediatrics "...a very readable and yet comprehensive volume that actually does provide an overview of this important subject in language readily understood by a parent or older teenage patient...it addresses the common questions and concerns of puzzled parents.

  • Fast shipping, great condition, will buy from again

    Haven't finished reading yet. Lots of detail. I purchased this on the advice of my therapist in handling my 9 yo adhd daughter. It does require a lot of structure and follow through. After using just a few of the techniques I have already had positive responses.

  • VERY informative book about ADHD!!!

    I have found this book very helpful. I am constantly learning new things about ADHD in this book, which is helping me greatly in understanding my son and how and why he does what he does. I have already recommended it to a number of parents and will continue to do so.

  • A Great Book

    This is a very informative book about a problem miilions of children have Adhd. it taught me a lot about this problem and helping to adapt to living with someone with this. I will tell people to BUY this book if you know someone who has ADHD.

  • A to Z information

    Great book, very informative. I'm a teacher with a student with ADHD and this book has been very helpful in understanding my student better.

  • Happy with my purchase
