5.0 out of 5 stars
all about women with ADD,
By A Customer
This review is from: Understanding Women With Ad/Hd (Pb) (Paperback)
This book is an amazing resource of information about the specific issues of being a woman and having ADD/ADHD. This is the type of book that you would want your husbands, parents, and close friends to read because they will learn so much about you.This is a great book that opens up traits and characteristics that I always thought were part of my personality. I have read many of the ADD/ADHD books for adults out on the market and this one is a must have for counselors, teachers, female students, moms- and any female having to struggle with ADD, also a great book for anyone who had contact with women with ADD.

True insight into those suffering from AD/HD,

This review is from: Understanding Women With Ad/Hd (Pb) (Paperback)
"Understanding Women with AD/HD" is a compilation of articles by various medical professionals. Kathleen Nadeau and Patricia Quinn have taken these articles (many of which they contributed to) and put them into a logical order and format so that it is easy for the non-professional to gain a comprehensive understanding of AD/HD as it relates to women. Of all the books on AD/HD I have read this one provides most comprehensive coverage while still being highly approachable. Subjects covered include why the DSM-IV diagnosis may be inadequate, a self-assessment, hormonal influences, depression, deprogramming, women's life stages, and other issues relating to women with AD/HD. Easy to follow, the editors make a complex subject understandable. "Understanding Women with AD/HD" is a highly recommended, authoritative read for anyone desiring an understanding of AD/HD and of particular interest for those whose interest is in the unique problems of women.

By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Understanding Women With Ad/Hd (Pb) (Paperback)
Collaboratively edited by Kathleen Nadeau and Patricia Quinn, Understanding Women With AD/HD is an impressive anthology of essays by experts addressing issues specific to women with AD/HD. Covering all stages of life from youth, college years, married life, motherhood, workplace matters, and the struggle to properly balance one's life, Understanding Women With AD/HD is an encompassing, ground breaking work that resonates with understanding for the plight of facing life's challenges with a mind that tends to over focus, especially at the worst possible times. Understanding Women With AD/HD is a highly recommended contribution to personal, professional, and academic AD/HD reference collections.
