This edited volume in Karger's Key Issues in Mental Health series (vol. 176) looks at ADHD as it continues into adult life. Its chapters move from family, twin and molecular genetic studies through neurophysiology and brain imaging to diagnosis, prevalence, comorbidity and the effects on daily functioning, conduct and offending, then close with psychotherapy and medication.

It is written for clinicians who assess and treat adults. For neurofeedback and QEEG practitioners, the neurophysiology and imaging chapters give useful background, and the comorbidity chapter helps when an adult's attention problems need to be told apart from other conditions.
