Cognitive behavioral therapy with ADHD children

This text, which has a foreward by Russell Barkley, Ph.D., provides an overview of the disorder, assessment procedures and treatment recommendations. Too many times those who deal with children with this disorder (parents, teachers, ect.)are left without knowledge or techniques to assist the student.
