  Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that can interfere with daily functioning. While ADHD is most commonly diagnosed in childhood, it often continues into adolescence and adulthood, affecting individuals across various stages of life. Despite its prevalence, ADHD remains misunderstood by many, leading to misconceptions and challenges for those living with it. 
  The impact of ADHD can be profound, influencing various aspects of life, including education, work, relationships, and overall well-being. Individuals with ADHD may struggle with maintaining focus, staying organized, and controlling impulsive behaviors. These challenges can lead to frustration, low self-esteem, and feelings of inadequacy, especially when their symptoms are not properly managed or understood. However, it is important to note that ADHD is not a reflection of intelligence or capability. With the right strategies and support, individuals with ADHD can thrive and excel in many areas of life.

  On how our feeling of equilibrium has characterized us as a country and will protect our future. 
  In the years that the creator served in the public parliament he came to figure out the extraordinary person of Australia; to see the value in its assets and shortcomings; and in particular to regard the feeling of equilibrium in the plan of public strategy that has long characterized us as a country and made Australia an appealing objective for individuals from across the world. 
  In this book he investigates this equilibrium, its establishments and its future. Composed against the background of the Coronavirus pandemic, as well as a portion of the more challenged political occasions of late years - the appointment of Donald Trump, the Brexit vote, the ascent of China, and, inside our own country, a merry go round of six heads of the state in eleven years - these reflections address how Australia has answered strain over the course of the past ten years or somewhere in the vicinity. Editorial regarding these matters from lawmakers, assessment scholars and web-based entertainment can at times appear to be deafening and disruptive. Australia's 25th and second longest serving head of the state has confidence that regardless of what difficulties and limits take steps to agitate our feeling of equilibrium, the nation's foundations and individuals will stay hearty for a significant length of time.

  Throughout history, cities have risen and fallen, some leaving behind monumental legacies while others have vanished into myth. The allure of lost cities has captivated imaginations across generations, often blending history with legend. These fabled metropolises, shrouded in mystery and time, offer tantalizing glimpses into what might have been—magnificent civilizations, advanced technologies, and vibrant cultures. Whether concealed beneath the sands of the desert, submerged under the sea, or hidden deep in the jungles, the idea of cities lost to time speaks to humanity's eternal quest for discovery and our fascination with the past. 
  The mystery of lost cities invites both scholars and adventurers to uncover what lies beneath the surface of ancient tales. It fuels our imagination, as each lost city becomes a puzzle—fragments of architecture, scattered relics, and half-forgotten stories that promise to reveal something transformative. But beyond mere exploration, these cities often represent something deeper: the fragility of human ambition, the impermanence of power, and the profound impact of time on civilization. In this quest to resurrect ancient urban centers, we see not just the history of the cities themselves, but also reflections of our own desires and dreams for immortality.

  A profound meditation on memory and the preservation of Palestinian heritage, from the award-winning author of We Could Have Been Friends, My Father and I. 
   
   
   
  Forgotten uncovers the hidden or neglected memorials and places in historic Palestine—now Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories—and what they might tell us about the land and the people who live on the small slip of earth between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. 
   
   
   
  From ancient city ruins to the Nabi 'Ukkasha mosque and tomb, acclaimed writers and researchers Raja Shehadeh and Penny Johnson ask: what has been memorialized, and what lies unseen, abandoned, or erased—and why? Whether standing on a high cliff overlooking Lebanon or at the lowest land-based elevation on earth at the Dead Sea, they explore lost connections in a fragmented land. 
   
   
   
  In elegiac, elegant prose, Shehadeh and Johnson grapple not only with questions of Israeli resistance to acknowledging the Nakba—the 1948 catastrophe for Palestinians—but also with the complicated history of Palestinian commemoration today.
