A.D.D. AISLE

Attention deficit disorder (ADD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are two of the most commonly diagnosed learning problems in children. Recent discoveries have also pointed out that many adults suffer with ADD and that treatment is available in adult life.

For me, this is the best single book out there. It is comprehensive, without being ponderous, and the discussion of treatment for ADD, including the pharmacological aspects, is without peer in popular literature." -- Amazon.com User Review

It's nice to know that there are some authors who are brave enough to give us information about possible causes and treatments from a natural standpoint. This book is a wonderful tool for me to use to try to eliminate the symptoms that resemble ADD, but may not actually be ADD." -- Amazon.com User Review
