Description

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a growing concern worldwide. In recent years, rates of diagnosis among American youth have increased by 40%, while adults with ADHD are becoming an increasingly large segment of the population receiving diagnosis and treatment. The disorder has sparked intense debate about its nature, diagnosis, and treatment. Two experts, Stephen Hinshaw and Katherine Ellison, provide authoritative information on this topic in their book ADHD: What Everyone Needs to Know. They address key questions, such as the role of medication, the impact on girls and women versus boys and men, and the potential for misdiagnosis. This book offers a clear and balanced view of ADHD, cutting through misinformation and providing sound guidelines for educators, policymakers, health professionals, parents, and the general public.
