Attention Deficit Disorder is a disease that stigmatizes millions of Americans and causes many of them to fail--first in school, then later in adult life. It has been estimated that 90% of the prison population has ADD. This book takes a unique look at the disorder, suggesting that it is not really a disease, but rather an evolutionary adaptation to life in a hunting society. Line drawings.
