Description: What You Think ADD/ADHD Is, It Isn't : Symptoms and Neuropsychological Testing Through Time, Hardcover by Fisher, Barbara C., Dulapa, Kristine Holton (EDT), ISBN 1439839964, ISBN-13 9781439839966, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The author proposes that diagnosis of ADD/ADHD is more complex and nuanced than previously believed, buttressing her argument with a compilation of 20 years of testing and her own experience as a clinician. She believes that the inattentive form of ADD should be distinguished from ADHD based on neuropsychological testing, and posits that what clinicians may really be seeing are the symptoms of inattention, ., anxiety can be misread as impulsivity or overactivity. Too often ADD/ADHD is a universal label for symptoms that might instead be evidence of an underlying disorder. While debunking common myths and illuminating the way the disorder impacts people, she also provides a plethora of statistical analyses. Fischer's book is an earnest plea to clinicians to take a closer look. There are seventeen chapters focusing on children, adolescents, and adults in the categories of testing, self-reporting, results, trends, review, and the final take-away. The text is supported by a copious amount of graphs. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
