From the reviews: "By providing a critical review and analysis of the research on college students with ADHD, College Students With ADHD is a major contribution to the literature. It will be enlightening to researchers and those working to help this student population. ... This book clearly serves as a benchmark for the field of study that centers on college students, but it could also serve as a model for similar publications that focus in turn on preschool children, school children, and adults with ADHD." (Robert D. Brown, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 58 (45), November, 2013)
