"Barkley has produced an exceptionally helpful, practitioner-friendly guide, using his career-culminating executive functioning/self-regulation theory of ADHD as the overarching framework. The book is at once deeply conceptual and inherently practical, with a plethora of clinical tips throughout its pages. It will help professionals in multiple disciplines to understand the impairments that so many individuals with ADHD experience across the lifespan, to recognize the huge stakes involved in clinical management, and to administer evidence-based assessment and treatment strategies."--Stephen P. Hinshaw, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of California, Berkeley; Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, University of California, San Francisco
"Not only is Barkley one of the worlds foremost scientific authorities on ADHD, but he also is a master of translating theory and research into clinical practice. This essential resource for mental health and education professionals presents state-of-the-science information that is directly connected to clear recommendations for diagnosing ADHD and comorbidities, providing parent counseling and behavior management training, and dealing with school and medication issues. Appendices include useful forms and handouts, as well as information on ADHD and health, neurogenetic underpinnings of the disorder, and treatments to avoid. This book needs to be on the desks of all professionals working with children and adolescents with ADHD."--George J. DuPaul, PhD, Department of Education and Human Services, Lehigh University
"The book addresses important issues that clinicians face daily, such as how to properly assess and treat ADHD, how to help children and adolescents improve their executive functioning and self-regulation deficits, ways to promote school success, and more. A preeminent scientist, educator, and practitioner, Barkley has drawn on over 50 years of experience to create this sorely needed resource. In addition to timely, pragmatic information, the book provides a wealth of forms, assessment tools, and fact sheets to copy and use with parents and school personnel. Barkley, the ADHD guru, delivers once again!"--Lisa Weyandt, PhD, Director, Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program, Department of Psychology, University of Rhode Island
"Once again, Barkley has produced an exceptional work that is unprecedented in its grounding in established theory and its synthesis of the voluminous literature on ADHD and its treatment. The book translates research into practical guidelines for helping children and adolescents with ADHD at home and school. This book is essential reading for clinicians across disciplines who are treating children and adolescents with ADHD, as well as students preparing to become practitioners in clinic, school, and primary care settings."--Thomas J. Power, PhD, ABPP, Professor of School Psychology in Pediatrics, Psychiatry, and Education, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania-
