Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fully revised and updated edition of the groundbreaking book on tackling the root causes of children’s attention and behavior problems rather than masking the symptoms with medication.

The rate of ADHD diagnosis has increased sharply, along with the prescription of medications to treat it.
