Delivered from Distraction
(Savannah, Ga.) January 13, 2005 - 5.0/5 stars

Dr. Hallowell's latest book is a gem. He gives concrete examples from the lives of people who suffer from ADD. After reading the book, I almost wish I had it. Clearly, it is often ancillary to the most gifted, creative minds.

Not only is this book informative, but, at times, it is hysterically funny. (Take the personality test on page 44 on home life, if you want to fall to the floor laughing.) Larded within the elegant prose and the scientific data, the warmth of Dr. Hallowell's own personality shines through. His view on life would seem to be: one can laugh or one can cry about the cards one is dealth.

Clearly, he has decided to laugh through his tears.
