"The fully updated edition of this popular, authoritative text on evidence-based assessment and treatment of adults with ADHD The new edition of this popular text incorporates the latest research on and assessment and treatment practices for adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This neurodevelopmental disorder typically emerges during childhood, and it often persists over the lifespan and well into adulthood. Although ADHD is typically first identified during the childhood years, the presentation of symptoms may differ considerably between adults and children. Without appropriate symptom management, ADHD can significantly interfere with academic, emotional, social, and work functioning. When properly identified and diagnosed, however, outcomes in adults with ADHD who receive appropriate treatment are encouraging. This volume is both a compact "how to" reference for use by professionals in their daily work and an ideal educational reference for students. It has a similar structure to other books in the Advances in Psychotherapy series, and informs the reader of all aspects involved in the assessment and management of ADHD in adults. The new edition also explores how psychosocial adversity factors impact the development and functional impairments associated with ADHD and highlights strategies used in the multimodal treatment of ADHD in adults. Best practice approaches are offered for common problems encountered when carrying out treatments. A companion volume Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Children and Adolescents is also available"--
