Attention Deficit Disorder

Esther K. Sleator, M.D.
William E. Pelham, Jr., Ph.D.
This book (ISBN 0-8385-0475-2) was published in 1986 by Appleton-Century-Crofts. I have made it available because it's hard to find (out of print and in few libraries), and the topic of treating ADD-H with Methylphenidate (Ritalin) is still controversial.
