Reading suggestion for ADD parents and students

I just picked up the book "Delivered from Distraction" by Hallowell and Ratey. It is written by the same authors of Driven to Distraction. I haven't read the whole book but I am feeling like they have some positive advice to give.
I have the soft-cover version that has a great preface to the new addition. The chapter "Major Danger Alert: College and ADD" has some great steps to help the student be successful in college.

Thanks for the info. I've read Driven to Distraction and Answers to Distraction, but not this one.

mom60, Thank you soooo much for sharing this title. I rushed to my public library during my lunch break yesterday to pick up this book. Could hardly force myself to return to work as I started reading it in the parking lot.
