    Product Review
    "will serve as an invaluable resource for parents, teachers, educators, and psychotherapists." -- (Anthony LaBruzza, 1998)

    "Illuminating, comprehensive, and delightfully written offers a fresh perspective on ADHD and related disorders." -- (Eduardo M. Bustamante, 1998)

    Product Description
    Brainstorms examines questions surrounding the possible neurobiological underpinnings of the emotionally hyperactive and hyperreactive components of ADHD and related disorders. These pre-psychological substrata may, for example, be fundamental to what we think of as temperament.

    Customer Reviews & Comments
    This review is from: Brainstorms: Understanding and Treating Emotional Storms of ADHD from Childhood through Adulthood (Hardcover) I read a borrowed copy and was ordering my own book within 24 hours. Both as a professional working with "at risk" children and as the mother of a child with a psychobiological disorder, I whole-heartedly recommend Dr. Horacek's book. In a spare 211 pages he gives perhaps the clearest most readable discussion of neuroanatomy and neurotransmitters I have encountered. He covers medical management and includes a fascinating glimpse of drug manufacture and marketing, the FDA, and the quandry faced by medical practitioners (hence insurance companies and consumers) in labeling a collection of behavioral symptoms. This book's cost might give some pause, but in my experience one would have to combine 2 or 3 other less readable texts to approximate the content of this single volume. It's an ideal purchase for those who want to know "why".
