Enjoyed reading this book. It bounces back and forth between the aurthor's personal story and the history of ADHA.

timothy Denevi's personal story is a fun read. The history part of it was very interesting, from actually diagnosing ADHD and how treatment had changed.

I agree with most of what the author says. Chemicals alone are not the answer. Therapy must be a large part of the treatment. There is no cookie cutter approach. Each child will have to find their own path. Keep trying until you find what works and sometimes, what works one time, doesn't work the next.
