The Inspiration for my New-Found Compassion
For the first time in my life, BECAUSE of Dr. Amen's book, my outlook on sick & suffering people, is FOREVER altered. I am deeply grateful for this book, for Dr. Amen's work, his compassion, and his graciousness in sharing it with the world. I, like most people, have expended energy on judging certain people, and groups of people. After a huge spiritual & emotional break-through while reading ...

Windows into the ADD Mind: Understanding and treating ADD
This should be a must read for every parent of an Adder or an Adult Adder. Dr. Amen has treated thousands of patients, but what assisted me tremendously is that he is both a father of two ADD children and a husband to an ADD adult. He has walked it so he can truly talk about it. I have two ADHD children and I am ADD. We got on the right track from reading this book shortly after being ...

Essential reading for everyone over 50!
I have been waiting for 3 years for this book to come out and it meets and surpasses my expectations. Dr. Shankle treated my mother for Alzheimer's and is treating my father for other neurological problems. Concerned about getting Alzheimer's myself, this book is both reassuring and informative, offering concrete steps we can all take now to reduce our risk of dementia and suggesting memory ...

Not just for ADD students
I bought this book for my son who has ADD and is starting college. I ended up giving it to my niece who does not have ADD but is starting nursing school. I am also getting a copy for my daughter who again does not have ADD but is in medical school. It is an excellent reference for all college students. It puts away the two hours of study for every hour of class myth we all heard but did not ...

There is help!
There are a lot of self help books out there, and in that there are a lot of them that don't help. This book helps people do what they need to do to not suffer anymore. It talks about medication if needed, and other natural alternatives as well. I like how Dr. Amen stresses that it is a change in a whole lifestyle. Taking medicine, natural or not needs to be accompanied by a GOOD DIET ...

Change Your Brain, Change Your Life
This book(I listened to the cd's.) is an amazing insight into the human brain, how it works, and explains so many misconceptions about thinking in regards to our present mindset about behavior. It explains each part of the brain and behaviors that are represented by each part in a way that is easy to understand and connect to. It also gives great detail and information on behaviors, why we use ...

Vital to understanding ADD brain function and treatment
Increased my understanding of the problem 100 fold. Renewed my committment to avoid the conflict seeking behavior my child exhibits. Highly recommend that this information be shared with all caregivers and teachers your child is in contact with as well as family members who do not understand and are even somewhat frightened by ADHD children's behavior.

This Book has Everything, and is Easy to Read
I have read a lot of child raising books, and I think this book is very helpful as it succinctly covers most of (what I think) are the most important topics. It is 129 pages, though is fairly large print, has charts, and bulleted items, and is easy to read/ refer back to. It is written by Dr. Daniel Amen, a child psychiatrist. There are 25 chapters encompassed in this 129 page book. Thus ...

Skeptic from the start
However, my husband twisted my arm and I was tired of him nagging me, so what the heck. We both started the Isagenix program a couple of months ago and I just finished reading Dr. Gray's book. Neither of us really needed to lose weight, but I have a history of depression and PMDD (I've been on meds now for almost seven years). So two months later, I'm eating my words of skepticism. I am ...
10 Steps to Building Values Within Children
M.D. Daniel G. Amen
Mindworks Press
, 2003
In any junior high school or high school you will find children who are greedy and dishonest. You'll find children who are intolerant, prejudiced, impatient, unfriendly, vengeful, jealous and disloyal. Values come from many sources. The number one source is the home, from parents. Children watch what parents do, how they interact with others. Children tend to do what their parents do, not what they say to do. Knowing what to do and say will make ...

This book opened my eyes
I was at a point where it was like I was swiming upstream at work. Too many things were just so much more difficult than they needed to be. I picked this book up because the title jumped out at me. This is the best work environment self-assessment book I have ever seen. It's the only one I've found that helps to identify why some jobs, or work environments are just not a good fit and ...

My kids just don't get this one.
Though I really like the idea behind this book, my kids just weren't getting it. The book is about a father leaning to use positive re-enforcement with his child after getting no where using punishments. He gets the idea from the trainer of Fat Freddie, a penguin who can do some amazing stuff. The message in this book is more useful for the parents then the child. I don't see how a child ...

Buy his more recent books
This book is a predecessor to his more recent books, "Change Your Brain, Change Your Life," and "Healing ADD. He has gathered much more experience and writing ability since he wrote this book. This book is not that good, but his later books are great.

With Understanding, There Can Be Hope, Even with ADHD
In his book HEALING ADD, Dr. Amen tells of how he got into the practice of working with ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) patients, and he shares his insights into this condition. Most authors of ADD books describe it as one condition, or perhaps two types of conditions. Dr. Amen, on the other hand, breaks it down into six different types of disorders and how they affect the patient and those ...

The manual is appropriate for younger students and older students who are still challenged with cognitive skills useful in everyday life. Format is that of a children's book and younger children can relate to the media layout. In an age of low self-esteem and non-nuturing environments thinking positive and feeling good about oneself can only enhance a child's outlook on life and affects the ...

Great help!
This book was good for both of us. It reminded me (the ADDer) some of the things I do are a result of the disease, not because I am ignorant or thoughtless. And it gave my husband a better idea of the same~ We have been in counseling for a year now, this book was the best way to finish our work and deal with/accept my ADD
