THE NATIONAL AUDIO BESTSELLER

Procrastination. Disorganization. Distractibility. Millions of adults have long considered these the hallmarks of a lack of self-discipline. But for many, these and other problems in school, at work and in social relationships are actually symptoms of an inborn neurological problem: ADD, or Attention Deficit Disorder.

Through vivid stories of the experiences of their patients -- both adults and children -- Dr. Edward R. Hallowell and Dr. John J. Ratey show the varied forms ADD takes -- from the hyperactive search for high stimulation to the floating inattention of daydreaming -- and the transforming impact of precise diagnosis and treatment.

Driven to Distraction is a must listen for everyone intrigued by the workings of the human mind.

What Customers Say About Driven to Distraction ( New on CD) : Recognizing and Coping with Attention Deficit Disorder from Childhood Through Adulthood:

This is an intelligent, easy to understand book on ADD and ADD hyperactivity disorder--written by a professor who has it himself

This is the way to go for ADHD people who won't read thru the book. I found this lighthearted and very informational with information applying to school kids to adults. Highly recommended.

The description stated that the book was in "Excellent Condition", but when the book arrived, the edges of the book were yellowed and something had spilled on the front of the book that I had to scrap off. I was very disappointed in my purchase.

This is one of the best books available on this subject and is particularly helpful for adults with the condition. The 2 follow up books are also brilliant.

This was very helpful for me to read for it helped me understand our 21 year old grandson's situation. I did not read it all, but especially did the part about adult relationships at home and at work. Thanks.
