This is a three-book bundle, which addresses various subtopics. ADHD is a condition in the brain many people are somewhat familiar with.

There is way more to it. And not only is so much more to say about the causes of ADHD, but about the consequences as well. You will learn about many aspects of ADHD and the side effects of the condition that you may have never heard of before.

Diagnosis Human offers a compelling alternative to the biomedical model of mental health as it's been promoted over the last thirty years—a model which says that mental distress is a problem of chemical imbalance, or brain chemistry. Biological psychiatry focuses on quantifying the "illness" by an almost exclusive focus on symptoms. In this model, symptoms are never good.
