I have learned much from Fintan O'Regan over the years and find I continue to do so, having just read the manuscript of this excellent book, written with Zoe Beezer, also a very experienced educationalistIt is full of up-to-date information and practical advice for parents and, indeed, teachers. It is refreshingly modern, accurate and includes findings from very recent research on how one can support a young person with ADHD. The authors relish lists and bullet points which makes it easy to use even if one has limited attention oneself. It deserves to be found (and read) in every household where there is a young person with ADHD. -- Professor Peter Hill, Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist in private practice
