A new and original studies of one of a fast growing epidemic: attention deficit disorder.

Since ADHD was first classified as a disorder in the 1980s we have seen a startling increase in diagnoses for children, adolescents and, most recently, even adults across all demographic categories along with its standard medical regimen of nervous-system stimulants. How to account for the sudden appearance and rapid proliferation of this astonishing epidemic? How to evaluate the persistent claims of a biological cause based on inconsistent correlational stud- ies? And how to rethink psychoanalytic theory and practice to better address the subjective instability that this "disorder" describes? In this important and timely book, Patrick Landman addresses these questions in a clear and comprehensive way, creating a new roadmap for clinicians and researchers that is commensurate with the unique forms of suffering in our times.
