Driven to Distraction

Driven to Distraction: Recognizing and Coping With Attention Deficit Disorder From Childhood Through Adulthood


By Edward M. Hallowell and John J. Ratey
Dispels numerous myths, such as (1) ADD is an issue only for children, and (2) ADD corresponds simply to limited intelligence or limited self-discipline. Noting that both Mozart and Einstein were probably ADD sufferers, the authors argue convincingly that distractibility, low frustration tolerance, and disorganization can be managed as a neurological problem, rather than judging or blaming yourself.
Offers hope for frustrated people who carry ADD with them each day live within your means, create external structure, develop compensatory habits, and more. 335 pages. 1994. $16.00. SPECIAL: 10% discount on 10+ copies.
