ADHD is a common, complex and yet often misunderstood condition,
affecting children, adolescents and adults. It causes a wide range
of difficulties with concentration, impulse control, hyperactivity,
motivation and time awareness. This can often lead to school
failure, expulsion, and emotional, behavioral and social problems.
An estimated two per cent of the population suffers from ADHD. To
ensure their effective treatment, three critical areas need to be
addressed. Parents, teachers and professionals must become aware of
the possibility of ADHD (symptoms can mimic other medical and
environmentally related conditions, which can make accurate
recognition difficult). Second, the reality of coping with ADHD in
its many forms, both for individuals with the condition and those
around them, must be acknowledged and understood. Finally, there is
a need for a holistic approach to the assessment and management of
ADHD to ensure the most effective resolution for individuals.
The author givesan overview of the condition based on the broad
internationally recognized approach to ADHD, which takes account of
its biological as well as environmental elements. He discusses
appropriate management guidelines, which include consideration of
medication as well as psychosocial and educational strategies.
The book aims to be a comprehensive and authoritative text on ADHD,
its causes and management currently available in the UK. It
provides a practical guide to the process of dealing more
effectively with ADHD, from initial recognition to effective
management strategies via assessment and diagnosis. It is intended
for parents, teachers and other professionals to facilitate
appropriate understandingand support for this distressing
condition.
