Comment: The book includes: 1) "Maps, Guidebooks, and Travelogues for a Hunter in a Farmer's World," 2) Stories by people with ADD describing how they succeeded and what they learned, 3) Workplace success stories, and 4) School success stories. Much of the material relates to the workplace. It is practical and interesting.

Summary: Fantastic Book for ADD'ers
Comment: Thom Hartmann is one of the best writers on ADD, for ADD'ers. Why? Because he doesn't label people with ADD as having brain disease and broken. His Hunter in a Farmer's World Model makes so much sense. It's been dissed by Barkley and others, but in the last year hard genetic research has come in proving the theory, and other ADD researchers have reached the same conclusions.
But that's not why you should buy this book Buy it because it gives tons of examples of people with ADD who have had success in all different aspects of life. The fact is, ADD people are the ones with ants in their pants who change the world. Who don't sit there and settle for the ordinary. They do things-- start companies (entrepreneurs,) make noise about problems (call them politicians and activists,) investigate stuff (detectives, reporters, scientists who don't wash test tubes and replicate the ADD scientists visionary work.)

So read about how ADD'ers make it, how they succeed, and start feeling not only hopeful, but perhaps even a bit cocky about being an ADD'er or knowing one.

Summary: ADD Success Stories - Awesome
Comment: As a "hunter" myself, I never could get past all that boring ADD diagnotic stuff about receptors, etc. This was the first book on ADD that was interesting enough to read. It confirmed, for me, what I thought all along. I'm not defective, just different. Many gifted people throughout history have been just tormented by our boring farmer society. This book has also helped my to deal with my child's school. I had been fighting with them for years. Another thing that I think is interesting is the Native American (or Nomadic European tribes)connection. I had speculated about it myself. Now when someone tells me they're ADD, I ask if they have Native American blood, and so far the answer is always yes.
