Illustrated Historical Notebook of Narcolepsy and its Medications
Through the history of hyperactivity, now known as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, the history of medical science itself was being analyzed. This beautifully illustrated book written by Dr. Éric Konofal shows us how, step by step, the numerous intellectual trials and errors made it possible to understand attention and its disorder which can affect up to 5% of the population.
It is the first book totally devoted to the history of ADHD, encompassing the literary, philosophical, medical, neuropsychological and therapeutical aspects of attention, hyperactivity and ADHD, with more than 400 illustrations and 500 bibliographic references.
