Attention Deficit Disorders: A Neurological Diagnostic Perspective

The effects of attention deficit disorders seem to touch many peoples lives today, and the questions surrounding this disorder are many. There is more information regarding this disorder than at any time in its history. Unfortunately, there is just as much misinformation surrounding the facts of this disorder as ever. It is the intention of this book to, in some way, unveil a few misconceptions surrounding Attention Deficit Disorders; logically, medically, and more important scientifically. By exploring the history, etiology, comorbidity and neurological diagnostic perspectives, those in professional positions responsible for our childrens welfare (teaching, nursery schools, childcare, parenting, and the medical community) may gain a better understanding of this condition.
