"It there is a book that every teacher and parent should read, this is it! This is a superb manual for providing a positive experience at home and school for ADHA children."
An excellent guide to understanding a common difficulty experienced children and a challenge for their teachers. Useful for both management of the behaviours associated with ADHD and also a reference tool for those wishing to extend their study of the condition.
A very accessible book. Really helps in the understanding of ADHD
A great book for any students completing ALN units in a variety of courses.
This book will be brilliant for learners covering SEN units.
It is both factual and informative as well as making interesting reading.
Case studies were helpful for making links to own experiences.
I particularly liked the key points to remember section at the end of each chapter. I feel this really helps learners to summarise and revise the chapters.
A useful book for those who do not have any experience in this field and therefore recommended for our Undergraduate courses
Excellent case studies that can be used in class and good summaries at the end of each chapter. The students who are evaluating this subject as part of their module said they would buy the book.
