Attention Deficit Disorder (A.D.D.) is now recognized as the most common cause of school under-achievement and behavior difficulties in schoolchildren. It affects 5-10% of children aged 5-18 years -- the same proportion as asthma. There is currently a rapid increase in the awareness of this condition among educators, child-care professionals and parents, and A.D.D. is receiving increased media attention.
In All About A.D.D. Mark Selikowitz notes changing attitudes towards the diagnosis and treatment of A.D.D. among the ranks of pediatricians. This recent focus on A.D.D. proves that there is a need for an up-to-date, comprehensive and practical guide covering the condition in a balanced and authoritative manner, and this book fills that need. It will help parents, educators and health professionals including doctors, psychologists and speech therapists understand and treat the disorder.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. 'We are tired of being analysed - we just want help.' (From the parents of a child with Attention Deficit Disorder) Help is precisely what this reliable and comprehensive book offers - for all those with Attention Deficit Disorder and their families. ADD is now recognised as the commonest cause of learning and behavioural difficulties in school-aged children. It affects 5-10 per cent of children aged between five and eighteen. The symptoms are many and varied - they may include poor concentration, distractibility, forgetfulness, poor organization, impulsivity, restlessness, poor social skills, learning difficulties, low self-esteem, and defiant behaviour. Despite growing awareness of ADD among parents and health professionals, it is clear that ADD is still widely misunderstood. This book aims to help overcome such ignorance. Selikowitz concentrates on information that is of practical relevance to parents in understanding their children's difficulties and in helping them to overcome them. His advice is always cogent and compassionate. All about ADD will also be of great value to professionals such as teachers, psychologists, speech therapists, occupational therapists, and doctors, wanting an authoritative and up-to-date review of this important topic. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine. Codice articolo GOR002212060
