Dr. Kapalka has written a clinically sensitive treatise on ADHD in males across the developmental spectrum. Most notable about this book is his deft weaving of case studies with perceptive commentary on treatment strategies. He integrates contemporary clinical research findings with the compassion of an experienced clinician. A must-read for clinicians working with ADHD at any age. Mary Fristad, PhD, is Professor of Psychiatry and Psychology at the Ohio State University This is a thorough, interesting, and historical book on the origins of the recognition, identification, and treatment of the hyperactive and impulsive male from early school age through adulthood.
