Product Description
Using leap forward diagnostic techniques, Dr. Daniel Amen has exposed that there are six distinct types of ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder), each requiring a different treatment. With recommendations for prescription drugs, nutraceutical therapy, cognitive reprogramming, parenting and educational strategies, biofeedback, self-hypnosis and more, this revolutionary approach can lead sufferers of ADD to a normal, fully-functional life.Amazon.com Review
Hard, visual data make a compelling case for the existence of attention deficit disorder (ADD) in this revolutionary work by Daniel G. Amen, M.D. Using a nuclear medicine technique called “single photon emission computed tomography” (SPECT)–a controversial step, according to some of his peers–Dr. Amen scans patients’ brains to identify various abnormalities. From more than 8,000 such studies and more than 12,000 patient evaluations, Dr. Amen concludes that six–not the formerly presumed two–different types of ADD exist. This book encompasses the full spectrum of Dr. Amen’s work: from symptom identification to clinical evaluation, to diet and tablets recommendations, to everyday strategies for living with ADD (whether the reader is a mother of an ADD child, or has been diagnosed with the disease.)
No weirder to the disbelief surrounding this topic, Dr. Amen starts with a list of dead-on myths (including “ADD is overdiagnosed”) and surprising facts (“Many people with ADD are never hyperactive”). From this intriguing beginning flows a highly readable chapter on the signs and manifestations of ADD in all ages. Dr. Amen’s full description of SPECT imaging includes multiple brain scan photos that nicely support his theories. But the most nourishing element of this well-researched presentation occurs in the final half of the book; here, Amen painstakingly explores the biological (diet, exercise, tablets), psychological (from private coaching to psychotherapy), and social support (parenting and school strategies) needed to heal each type of ADD. This book will prove a valuable tool for parents, adult sufferers, and medical professionals seeking matter-of-fact support for administration this increasingly recognized shape up. –Liane Thomas

I found that the typical but useless psycho-chat about “brain dysfunction” in this book pretty much keeps to the standard psychiatric biochemical line about how the brain works. It’s fascinating that there are now a number of class action lawsuits hostile to the American Psychiatric Association claiming that ADD is a fraud, i.e. a non-surviving disease claimed to be a disease by the APA to gain business at our children’s expense. This book is nothing but a continuation of the fraud.
But, Dr. Amen’s novel treatment approaches and pseudo-scientific pontifications aside, this was a very entertaining book. And, if you want to see why psychiatry is a dying industry with no workable answers, read it.

Timely shipping and discussion about the 6 types of brain disorders which may possibly be the cause of ADHD. Kind of fascinating
Rating: 4 / 5
In page xvii of the introduction, Dr. Amen writes “Stimulant medications such as Adderall, Ritalin, or Dexedrine are among the safest and most effective medications in psychiatry”. That sounds reassuring until you read the article in Medical News Today (August 22, 2006) mentioning that “Dexedrine and Ritalin are drugs used to handle ADHD. The FDA announced changes to their marks, and possibly those of some other ADHD drugs, to include a warning of a risk of heart problems and psychotic behavior”. That is not reassuring at all. This book is writing in an authoritative style – sort of the bible of ADHD, the book that tells you what it is, and how to go about it. The only problem is that it is flawed.
