The remaining 11 chapters consist mainly of a presentation of available instruments for assessment and management of ADHD. This presen tation is fair and unbiased. It is a menu rather than an evaluative selection, where the practitioner-customer is allowed to make his or her own choice on the basis of numerous brief descriptions and samples (actually marked as such) of questionnaires, interviewing schedules, training programmes and even software.

On this evidence the book could well be subtitled: “¿ Market r sponses to a fashionable diagnosis―.
