...Explores the three social worlds of Attention Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder: home, classroom and clinic.  Through intensive interviews with teachers, parents, clinicians and ADHD children, this book brings to light the human experiences surrounding this behavior disorder.  The experiences of interview participants are supplemented with the most detailed historical discussion of ADHD to date, including past and present debates about the true nature of the disorder, issues concerning children taking stimulant medicaiotns, and the continuing discussion regarding modern technology's capabilities in detecting ADHD in the brain.  Both the history of ADHD and the people interviewed here demonstrate that ADHD is far from a cut and dried phenomenon, but, rather, a complex social process that requires the negotiation of uncertainty and ambiguity at every step.

Adam Rafalovich is Assistant Professor of Sociology at Texas Tech University and has published widely on the subject of ADHD.
