The best thing about this book is it lets you know that you are not alone. That there are many people out there who do and think the crazy things that all of us with ADD do. I was amazed at how many of the example profiles matched me almost word for word. My first realization was almost exactly the title of the book. The approaches for dealing with the symptoms of ADD are generally good. The only thing I didn't like is that there are many points in the book where the authors advocate lying. Not major stuff, mind you, but untruths nonetheless. Mostly excuses for behavior that are anything but honest. It would have been nice to get recommendations for actions that one could use without trading stress of ADD for stress of dishonesty.
