Der Verlag über das Buch

New book for social skill training!
What does everybody else know that I don't? It's frustrating to know you're making social mistakes when no one tells you exactly what you're doing wrong. They'll roll their eyes and whisper behind your back, but they won't tell you face to face. How can you ever learn the rules if no one teaches you? In this book, psychologist Michele Novotni reveals the "world of social skills" for people with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD)–honestly but sensitively discussing the secrets of manners, communication, subtext, and interpersonal relationships. The book's reader-friendly format is designed for AD/HD learning styles, answering the questions you're asking in the ways you need. True stories, practical exercises, tips and highlighted chapter summaries will keep you reading.

“Michele Novotni’s new book offers practical and sensible help in an area where such help is badly needed: social skills. She writes clearly and gracefully, observes faithfully and honestly, and suggests deftly and wisely.” —Edward Hallowell, M.D., co-author of “Driven to Distraction”

“Strongly recommended for adults whose attentional problems have impacted upon their ability to understand and respond to everyday social signals. Immensely valuable to parents, friends, professionals and spouses of AD/HD adults.”—Richard Lavoie, M.Ed., Host, “F.A.T. City” and “Last One Picked…First One Picked On”

“A much needed practical tool that can benefit many different kinds of learners. All people have strengths and weaknesses and this attends to those often shared by children as well as adults who have many ADD characteristics.” —Lynn Weiss, Ph.D., author of “ADD in Adults”

“A superb book…It is an excellent resource for school personnel, psychologists, and the significant others of ADD individuals.”—Arthur Freeman, Ed.D., ABPP, author of numerous books on cognitive-behavior therapy, and Chairman, Department of Psychology at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine

A resource unlike any other 27. Juli 2000

Von A. Scherer

Format:Taschenbuch

Simply put, this book proves to be the most insightful and valuable ADD resource I have come across. Having had the pleasure of befriending several individuals with ADD, I am familiar with many of the issues Novotni brings about in her book. Her text certainly has helped to improve my understanding on this topic, and I truly believe her work can be of benefit to everyone.

How can you ever TEACH the rules if no one taught you? 20. Juli 2000

Von Ein Kunde

As an ADD parent of an ADD child, I found the book enlightening. It opened my eyes to things I do sometimes, and the social consequences. I also see things that my children do. With suggestions from this book I now have tools to help myself and in turn, help them. I liked that it gave examples of the right words to say, which is sometimes a problem for me.
