The mission of "Adult ADD Factbook -- The Truth About Adult Attention Deficit Disorder Updated November 2011," by Ron Sterling, M.D., is to provide you with latest and best information about Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (Adult ADD). The book's greatest strength is in its ability to arrive at a balance between scientific truth (which requires some technical and scientific language) and user-friendliness. Adult ADD Factbook uses language and concepts that are easy to understand and remember, without dumbing down the very important scientific findings about the upside and the downside of the ADD brain. Yes, you read that right: the *upside* and the *downside* of the ADD brain. This Factbook will help you understand how the current narrow definition and the stigma related to ADD clearly subvert a true estimate of the prevalence of ADD and of many other dopamine and norepinephrine deficiency conditions in the Western Hemisphere. ADD is the current poster child for a large number of such deficiency conditions that are significantly responsible for "nicotinism," alcoholism, obesity, many eating disorders, insomnia, fibromyalgia, and the over-use of marijuana, cocaine, illicit methamphetamine, and opioids, not to mention dysfunctional gambling, over-spending, and impulse-control problems of many types. This 256-page Factbook is comprehensively sourced and end-noted (about 900 citations). Dr. Sterling connects the dots like no other author has yet connected them. For those who have been dealing with the challenges of undiagnosed ADD or have not been able to find authoritative information on ADD, this Factbook will turn the lights on for you. The book is a game changer, written as much for non-ADDers as it is for ADDers. In its leaner form at AdultADDFacts.com, Dr. Sterling's writings have already earned a solid reputation for helping thousands of people understand the truth about ADD. It has allowed them, quite often, for the first time, to clearly understand their experiences with ADD. "Adult ADD Factbook" is a revised excerpt from Dr. Sterling's forthcoming book "The Culture Genes -- Why America's Greatest Strength is Also its Greatest Weakness"™ to be published in the spring of 2012.
