A revolutionary new approach to ADD/ADHD featuring cutting-edge research and strategies to help readers thrive, by the bestselling authors of the seminal books Driven to Distraction and Delivered from Distraction “An inspired road map for living with a distractible brain . . . If you or your child suffer from ADHD, this book should be on your shelf. It will give you courage and hope.”—Michael Thompson, Ph.D., New York Times bestselling co-author of Raising Cain World-renowned authors Dr. Edward M. Hallowell and Dr. John J. Ratey literally “wrote the book” on ADD/ADHD more than two decades ago. Their bestseller, Driven to Distraction , largely introduced this diagnosis to the public and sold more than a million copies along the way. Now, most people have heard of ADHD and know someone who may have it. But lost in the discussion of both childhood and adult diagnosis of ADHD is the potential upside: Many hugely successful entrepreneurs and highly creative people attribute their achievements to ADHD. Also unknown to most are the recent research developments, including innovations that give a clearer understanding of the ADHD brain in action. In ADHD 2.0 , Drs. Hallowell and Ratey, both of whom have this “variable attention trait,” draw on the latest science to provide both parents and adults with ADHD a plan for minimizing the downside and maximizing the benefits of ADHD at any age. They offer an arsenal of new strategies and lifestyle hacks for thriving with ADHD, including • Find the right kind of difficult. Use these behavior assessments to discover the work, activity, or creative outlet best suited to an individual’s unique strengths. • Reimagine environment. What specific elements to look for—at home, at school, or in the workplace—to enhance the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit inherent in the ADHD mind. • Embrace innate neurological tendencies. Take advantage of new findings about the brain’s default mode network and cerebellum, which confer major benefits for people with ADHD. • Tap into the healing power of connection. Tips for establishing and maintaining positive connection “the other Vitamind C” and the best antidote to the negativity that plagues so many people with ADHD. • Consider medication. Gets the facts about the underlying chemistry, side effects, and proven benefits of all the pharmaceutical options. As inspiring as it is practical, ADHD 2.0 will help you tap into the power of this mercurial condition and find the key that unlocks potential.

General info. Don't waste time & money on this.
Very little non-medication solutions to put into action at the end of the day. They seem to favor drugs as solution arguing that beyond the side effects there are benefits but drug users report that they seem to lose their personality though symptoms seem to reduce. What's the point then?

Paperback is not original
The paperback I've received is not an original. The cover is very clearly misaligned, and the back cover text is a bit fuzzy. The pages inside are super thin, ink from multiple pages is visible in the background of the page I'm trying to read.

Sehr guter und umfassender Einstieg in das Thema ADHS
TOP. habe das Hörbuch in zwei Gassi-Sessions verschlungen, also "nur" gehört und noch nicht gelesen. Leider gibt es das nicht auf Deutsch, somit kann ich es seltener weiterempfehlen, es sei denn, die engl. Sprache ist kein Problem. Es ist kurzweilig und mir persönlich hat der Inhalt sehr geholfen. Es deckt alles ab und bietet auch ein paar Strategien an, es gibt Beispiele aus dem Leben und ist nicht einfach eine trockene Fachlektüre. Wer einen sehr umfassenden ersten Rundblick bekommen möchte, dem kann ich das Buch/Hörbuch nur wärmstens empfehlen. Edward (Ned) Hallowell, M.D. kann man z.B. auch auf YouTube anschauen, und wer noch tiefer in das Thema eintauchen will oder muss, für den gibt es dann im nächsten Schritt Foren und andere Autoren ... und hoffentlich fähige Ärzte und Therapeuten.

Think differently about ADHD
I've been living with an ADD/ADHD diagnosis for 4 freaking decades yet this book was a revelation to me. The magic words that allowed so many disparate thought to coalesce were 'you have a race car engine of a brain with the brakes of a bicycle'. Hit me like a 2x4 to the head. Read it to my wife and her reaction was 'duh' with a mild giggle. Learn about how your metacognition is a tremendous asset, how the switching in your brain really is glitchy and what to do about it. Well worth reading for how to improve your cerebellum to ease emotional regulation.

Spiegazione ADHD MOLTO ACCURATA !
Un libro illuminante! Finalmente un approccio chiaro e umano all’ADHD, che va oltre i soliti stereotipi. Gli autori spiegano con semplicità come funziona il cervello ADHD e offrono strategie pratiche per migliorare concentrazione, produttività e autostima. Mi è piaciuto tantissimo il tono positivo e incoraggiante: invece di trattarlo come un “problema”, mostrano come possa essere una dote da imparare a gestire. Lo consiglio a chiunque voglia capire meglio sé stesso o una persona vicina che vive con l’ADHD.
