It is also a highly controversial psychiatric disorder; in its cause, its diagnosis, and the effect of diagnosis on the patient. This controversy is exacerbated by the commonly recommended treatment for the condition - Ritalin. The Science of ADHD addresses the scientific status of ADHD in an informed and accessible way, without recourse to emotional or biased viewpoints. The very latest studies are used to present a reasoned account of ADHD and its treatment. The Science of ADHD is highly multidisciplinary, covering the areas of genetics, neuroscience, psychology and treatment. The ever increasing scientific evidence is described and discussed, informing the reader of the limitations of the science, but also the benefits that scientific enquiry can bring to understanding what goes on in the ADHD brain"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aAttention-deficit hyperactivity disorder 606 $aAttention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity 615 0$aAttention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. 615 12$aAttention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity. 676 $a618.928589 700 $aChandler$b Chris$f1966-$0952458 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bCaOLU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910208845603321 996 $aThe science of ADHD$92153199 997 $aUNINA
