Simon & Schuster ADHD: A Hunter in a Farmer's World

Well written with clear text and reasonable quality paper. Positively affirms and validates ADHD 'hunter' types as giving an evolutionary advantage to our species of predominantly neurotypical 'farmer' types.It is helpfully sectioned into "Understanding hunters and farmers", which explains how to recognise and understand the hunter type and "Living and thriving in a farmer's world" which gives practical advice for both hunters and the farmers who know them.An excellent positive and practical book. Thanks Thom.

On the first 20 pages, It’s a communism book which was something I didn’t expect. So far nothing about adhd but a long introduction of political statements and stuff. I’ll continue reading it but definitely wouldn’t buy it If I just had the chance to live this life again and this comment is in the reviews.

A real game changer. Easy to read and full of useful information. It will give you those answers to those annoying questions sick as, 'Why didn't we have it in our day?' and 'ADHD can't be real. Some countries don't have it at all,'A definite read for anyone interested in the field. Buy it!

As an adult with adhd and a parent of children with adhd I found this to be one of the best books I’ve read (or at least had the focus to read) about adhd.Whilst there are several references to the US Health Service and the way it works with adhd patients it is a lot more than just an adhd book written by an American for Americans.As a British person I still found that a lot of the theories and ideas and ways to cope in the book were very relevant and valid, regardless of the country you live in.

As an adult diagnosed with ADHD less than two years ago, I found this book very interesting. Mr. Hartmann’s theory, now fairly widely accepted as I understand it, helps to illustrate and explain the differences between my neurodivergent brain and a neurotypical brain. He makes a ton of sense. This book would help anyone struggling with their ADHD diagnosis, viewing themselves as sick, disabled, defective, etc. Nothing could be further from the truth that our brains just work differently and, in some ways, better.
