Description

Explore a fundamental case study in the medicalization of ADHD with this expanded edition of Peter Conrad's classic work.

It serves as an accessible entry point for those looking to understand the sociological concepts and issues surrounding behavioral diagnosis. In this revised edition, the author sets the original research within a modern context to show why these findings remain relevant today. The text outlines recent shifts in our understanding of ADHD and reviews contemporary sociological research.
