ADD & ADHD: Complementary Medicine Solutions      by Charles Gant "I have known about and personally observed from the beginning Dr. Charles Gants remarkable success rate in the diagnosis and treatment of ADD/ADHD. I have also eagerly awaited this published report of his work and how-to manual.

This exciting book finally reveals to the world what complementary medicine has to offer to patients and their parents who are victims of this devastating Twentieth-Century malady. Dr. Gant's approach properly corrects the problem, instead of thoughtlessly prescribing Ritalin with all its side effects, simply to shut the patients up. In my opinion, Dr. Gant has more knowledge and experience than anybody in this field of medicine, and specifically in the real psychoneuropathology of ADD/ADHD. He and his coworkers have put together a foolproof method of handling the whole problem.
I strongly recommend the reading of this revolutionary book by all sufferers of ADD/ADHD, their families, their teachers, and all healthcare personnel who attempt to treat them."

The second edition is even better, as it should be. This edition clarifies how we have learned much about ADHD in the past decade.
