Abstract Scattered Minds explodes the myth of attention deficit disorder as genetically based - and offers real hope and advice for children and adults who live with the condition.<br/><br/>Gabor Maté is a revered physician who specializes in neurology, psychiatry and psychology - and himself has ADD. With wisdom gained through years of medical practice and research, Scattered Minds is a must-read for parents - and for anyone interested how experiences in infancy shape the biology and psychology of the human brain.<br/><br/>Scattered Minds:<br/>- Demonstrates that ADD is not an inherited illness, but a reversible impairment and developmental delay<br/>- Explains that in ADD, circuits in the brain whose job is emotional self-regulation and attention control fail to develop in infancy - and why<br/>- Shows how 'distractibility' is the psychological product of life experience<br/>- Allows parents to understand what makes their ADD children tick, and adults with ADD to gain insights into their emotions and behaviours<br/>- Expresses optimism about neurological development even in adulthood<br/>- Presents a programme of how to promote this development in both children and adults
