1 Read more like a pamphlet than a book...
which, given its target audience, could be a good thing?

Either way, I got *very* little new information out of this book... and I'm no expert... I've only spent a few hours looking ADD up online.

If you need something to tell a student with ADD what ADD is like (as if they wouldn't know), and offer some overly obvious solutions... this is your book... or pamphlet.

2 Profoundly Disappointing
This book is, at best, an intro to ADHD.I bought it hoping that there would be some specific "how to study" tips for highschool and college students with AD/HD, but there is nothing of the sort. In fact, there is very little in this book that isn't found in other books written for children or adults. The chapter, "Legal rights of students with ADD" is useful and relevant, but that is 10 pages out of a 150.

There are two other annoying things about this book. First, Quinn uses the term 'ADD', which has been scientifically obsolete since the 1980s. Second, Quinn's writing style is somewhat condescending.

I would recommend that a person new to their diagnosis, or even somebody who is old hand, read "You Mean I'm not Lazy, Stupid, or Crazy?" as opposed to this book.

4 VERY HELPFUL RESOURCE for STUDENTS!
Patricia Quinn, MD has put together a helpful, concise, easy-to-read book that addresses the problems which may develop for students in high school and college. Each chapter is written by a different specialist who offers information on their specific topic. I recommend this book to all my ADD teenaged clients whether or not they want to go on to college. It is an extremely helpful resource.

5 Very helpful for student and parent
This book helped identify gifted students with ADD who were not doing well in college. The checklist included was helpful for the student in his consultation with the physician who was treating his ADD. The physician liked the checklist so much that he asked to copy it for his files!

	"I have examined Bogota," he said, "and the case is clearer to me.

I think very probably he might be cured."

	"That is what I have always hoped," said old Yacob.

	"His brain is affected," said the blind doctor.

	The elders murmured assent.

	"Now, what affects it?"

	"Ah!" said old Yacob.

	"This," said the doctor, answering his own question.  "Those queer

things that are called the eyes, and which exist to make an agreeable soft

depression in the face, are diseased, in the case of Bogota, in such a way

as to affect his brain.  They are greatly distended, he has eyelashes, and

his eyelids move, and cosequently his brain is in a state of constant

irritation and distraction."

	"Yes?" said old Yacob.  "Yes?"

	"And I think I may say with reasonable certainty that, in order

to cure him completely, all that we need do is a simple and easy surgical

operation -- namely, to remove those irritant bodies."

	"And then he will be sane?"

	"Then he will be perfectly sane, and a quite admirable citizen."

	"Thank heaven for science!" said old Yacob.
