Scattered Minds: The Origins and Healing of Attention Deficit Disorder by Dr Gabor Maté
“Dr. Maté’s compassionate and curious approach to these conditions is truly remarkable. He delves into the biological underpinnings with such clarity and empathy that it feels like he’s speaking directly to you. This book isn’t just about the science; it’s a journey of healing and self-discovery. Dr. Maté’s insights encourage you to explore your own experiences and those of your loved ones, offering hope and practical advice for managing and overcoming the challenges of ADD. Whether you’re a parent, educator, or someone living with ADD, “Scattered Minds” provides a comforting guide and a beacon of hope for a brighter future. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to understand and heal from the complexities of ADD and ADHD.”
The Blurb:
In “Scattered Minds,” Dr. Gabor Maté, who has ADD and is the father of three children with ADD, provides a revolutionary view on Attention Deficit Disorder. Contrary to the traditional belief that ADD is a genetic disorder, Dr. Maté argues that it is a developmental delay shaped by environmental factors. He describes how the brain circuits responsible for emotional self-regulation and attention control do not develop properly during infancy, resulting in ADD symptoms.
Dr. Maté’s empathetic and insightful approach offers hope and practical guidance for both children and adults dealing with ADD. He delves into the psychological effects of life experiences from the prenatal stage onwards and proposes a program to foster neurological development at any age. “Scattered Minds” is essential reading for parents, educators, and anyone looking to understand and address the complexities of ADD.
