| Abstract: | Reviews the book, Trouble déficit de l'attention avec ou sans hyperactivité (Attention deficit disorder with or without hyperactivity) by Olivier Revol and Vincent Brun (2010). Professionals from different disciplines discussed “Attention Deficit Disorder With and Without Hyperactivity (ADDH): from theory to practice” at Montpellier in March 2010. The resulting book by specialists in the field, led by Revol and Brun, aims to help caregivers, parents and teachers to recognize, support and assist people with ADDH. The nine chapters form an introduction to the disorder, related comorbodity and diagnostic evaluation, and address possible interventions. The conflicting opinions of professionals from psychiatry, psychology, neuropsychology and psychomotility may confuse some readers. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2011 APA, all rights reserved) |
