Scattered Minds: The Origins and Healing of Attention Deficit Disorder by Gabor Maté

informative slow-paced

3.5

This was really educational and I learned a lot, but I think it was about 100 pages longer than it needed to be, at least for a general audience. Some of the science-heavy parts were, for me, difficult to understand as someone who isn't a doctor/doesn't know that much about the body or brain. I think these topics could have either been shortened or reworded to make this an easier read for folks who have a hard time parsing dense language (I found it ironic considering it's a book about people with ADHD that was surprisingly hard for an ADHD person to focus on).
