Summary: ADD in the Workplace ADDS a lot of info for people with ADD
Comment: In the Annotated Bibliography of "Learning A Living" A Guide to Planning Your Career and Finding a Job for People with Learning Disabilities, Attention Deficit Disorder, and Dyslexia, I wrote:

A comprehensive book, explaining the positives and negatives of ADD in the workplace. The book is written for people who are already working and does not include job hunting informaiton. Personal coping skills and accommodations for employers are described. The book covers possibilities for self-employment, telecommuting, an other ways of "customizing" your own job. Two combinations are covered in separate chapters: women with ADD and people with ADD who also have learning disabilities."

I would like to add a few other points:

1. The book is beautifully laid out in an "ADD-friendly" manner that makes it easy to read.

2. The author speaks in a respectful tone to the reader.

3. She is very positive about ADD.

If you have ADD, this book will add to your repertoire of skills in handling work issues.

Summary: VALUABLE RESOURCE FOR ANYONE WHO HAS ADD
Comment: Kathleen Nadeau's book ADD IN THE WORKPLACE addresses those issues and problems which arise at work. It gives reliable information, and good suggestions. It not only helps the ADD adult understand and improve his or her work experiences but also gives them a better understanding of ADD and its effects on their lives. It is an easy to read, 'user friendly' book which I recommend to all my adult and college aged clients who are either in the workplace or wanting to get there.

Thanks Kathleen for writing a great book!

Summary: Interesting but of limited application to most adults
Comment: I found this book interesting but it came up short in application to a wide population of people who have not been in therapy. A lot of the content seems to relate to the author's own experience (and she claims to have ADD herself) and does not cover a broad research-based area or cover the issues in depth.
