FIRST PRINTING (stated) of the First Edition. A doctor speaks out against the common usage of Ritalin and similar drugs that act as stimulants for children, showing how they are not only not necessary in most cases, but actually frequently cause a wide range of negative side effects - many lasting for lifetimes. Author proposes a different look at ADHD - attention deficit hyperactivity disorder - as more of a common, natural developmental pattern, especially in boys, and that parents and educators should recognize that and work that recognition into solutions to problems resultant to this supposed 'disorder'.
