โฆ Synopsis
With 10.4 million young people diagnosed with ADHD each year, and with the diagnosis being embarrassing to some, this title is essential in educating those who have ADHD and those close to them about the condition. Readers will learn exactly what ADHD is, its symptoms, where to seek help, what medications are available and safe, and how to live happily and productively, such as Justin Timberlake does, a person profiled in this book who has ADHD. With Rosen's characteristic nonjudgmental treatment of the topic, readers can feel comfortable turning to this title for actionable information.
