“If you read only one book about attention deficit disorder, it should be Delivered from Distraction.” —Michael Thompson, Ph.D. In 1994, Driven to Distraction revolutionized the understanding of attention deficit disorder (ADD), selling over a million copies. Now, a second revolution is underway, with significant changes in drug therapies, dietary and exercise roles, and the definition of the disorder itself. Many adults remain undiagnosed and untreated, highlighting the need for updated insights. Drs. Edward M. Hallowell and John J. Ratey expand on previous breakthroughs to provide a comprehensive guide to thriving with ADD. They argue that “attention deficit disorder” is a misleading term for a unique mindset characterized by originality, charisma, and energy. This book offers engaging discussions on various aspects of ADD, including diagnosis, treatment options, and how to harness inner strengths. Readers will learn about familial links, new diagnostic methods, connections to other conditions, and both pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical therapies. Strategies for overcoming procrastination, clutter, and forgetfulness are also covered. Featuring inspiring patient profiles, this guide serves as a compassionate resource for those with ADD and their loved ones.

Groundbreaking and comprehensive, Driven to Distraction 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. 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.

With decades of experience working with ADD children, Dr. Edward Hallowell has long argued that ADD is too often misunderstood, mistreated, and mislabeled as a “disability.” Now he teams up with top academic ADD researcher Peter S. Jensen, M.D., to bring you an invaluable new approach to helping your ADD child. Superparenting for ADD offers a specific game plan including • UNCONDITIONAL LOVE Tune out the diagnosticians and simply nourish the spirit of your child for who he is. • VIEWING THE MIRROR TRAITS Recognize the positive sides of the negative symptoms associated with ADD: stubbornness = persistence; impulsiveness = creativity; intrusiveness = eagerness. • THE CYCLE OF EXCELLENCE Nurture an environment in which a child can safely take risks, reserve time to let a child dabble as a way to learn, encourage playful practice, support mastery of a skill, and then recognize a child’s accomplishments.
