    ADHD 2 Books in 1 
    "ADHD 2 Books in 1: A Guide to ADHD in Both Children and Adults" is not just a book; it's a comprehensive toolkit for understanding and navigating the complexities of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) at every stage of life. This essential compendium brings together two pivotal works, each tailored to illuminate the challenges and solutions for those affected by ADHD, whether in the bloom of childhood or the fullness of adulthood. 
    The journey begins with an in-depth exploration of ADHD in children, where the first volume lays out everything parents, educators, and healthcare professionals need to know about recognizing the early signs and symptoms of ADHD. It goes beyond diagnosis, offering a wealth of knowledge on conventional treatments and innovative self-help strategies designed to support the unique needs of young individuals as they grow. This segment is a beacon for parents and guardians, providing not just medical insights but practical advice on creating supportive environments that foster development and success. 
    Transitioning to adulthood, the second volume acknowledges the evolving nature of ADHD. It confronts the misconception that ADHD is solely a childhood issue, presenting a detailed analysis of how the disorder affects adults differently. From navigating diagnosis later in life to implementing effective management strategies, this book covers the gamut of adult ADHD with empathy and expertise. Readers will find guidance on treatment options, advice on handling professional and personal relationships, and tips for managing daily life with greater ease and confidence. 
    "ADHD 2 Books in 1" serves as a beacon of hope and a source of empowerment. It is meticulously crafted to offer a balanced perspective, blending scientific research with actionable advice to address the needs of those with ADHD and their loved ones.

    Winner of the Green Prize for Sustainable Literature
    		 
    A growing body of law around the world supports the idea that humans are not the only species with rights; and if nature has rights, then humans have responsibilities.
    		 
    “Expertly written case studies in which legalese is accessibly distilled … empowering reminders that the seemingly inevitable slide toward planetary destruction can be halted.” — Publishers Weekly, starred review
    		 
    Palila v Hawaii. New Zealand’s Te Urewera Act. Sierra Club v Disney. These legal phrases hardly sound like the makings of a revolution, but beyond the headlines portending environmental catastrophes, a movement of immense import has been building — in courtrooms, legislatures, and communities across the globe. Cultures and laws are transforming to provide a powerful new approach to protecting the planet and the species with whom we share it.
    		 
    Lawyers from California to New York are fighting to gain legal rights for chimpanzees and killer whales, and lawmakers are ending the era of keeping these intelligent animals in captivity. In Hawaii and India, judges have recognized that endangered species — from birds to lions — have the legal right to exist. Around the world, more and more laws are being passed recognizing that ecosystems — rivers, forests, mountains, and more — have legally enforceable rights. And if nature has rights, then humans have responsibilities.
    		 
    In The Rights of Nature, noted environmental lawyer David Boyd tells this remarkable story, which is, at its heart, one of humans as a species finally growing up. Read this book and your world view will be altered forever.
