Produktbeschreibung
Over the past ten years, increasing awareness of ADHD in the UK has resulted in an escalation in the number of referrals to child psychiatrists and pediatricians. The ADHD Handbook is the first of its kind, in that it is written by UK clinicians specifically for parents and health care professionals who have little prior knowledge of the disorder. It is a concise introductory handbook and provides essential information on the nature of ADHD. When young people are diagnosed as having ADHD, they usually have a lot of questions about the disorder, about what is wrong, what can be done, and what is going to happen to them. Their families, teachers and friends also have questions to ask, as they need to understand what is going on, so that they can help. This book outlines the symptoms and difficulties associated with the disorder and the sort of treatments and interventions available. This book also offers suggestions of where, or from whom more information and practical help can be found. The future for people with ADHD need not be bleak, if families and professionals can work together to ensure that the young person receives appropriate treatment -- The ADHD Handbook is a first step in this direction.
