FROM THE MULTI-MILLION-COPY BESTELLING AUTHOR OF WHEN THE BODY SAYS NO

The groundbreaking guide to Attention Deficit Disorder, challenging conventional myths around ADHD and providing practical guidance for children and adults.

Struggling with focus, impulsivity, or emotional overwhelm?
Looking to better understand ADHD in yourself or your child?

In his empowering and accessible bestseller, celebrated clinician Dr Gabor Maté seeks to dispel the myth of attention deficit disorder as genetically based – and offers real hope and advice for children and adults who live with the condition.

Drawing on decades of experience in psychology, neurology and child development – as well as his own lived experience with ADHD - Dr Maté offers a compassionate and insightful approach to understanding attention difficulties.

In Scattered Minds, you’ll discover:

  • A new understanding of ADHD and neurological development in both children and adults
  • Why challenges with focus, impulsivity and emotional regulation develop
  • How early experiences can shape the developing brain
  • Practical insights to help parents better understand and support their children
  • Tools for adults with ADHD to make sense of their behaviours and emotions


Blending science, compassionate insight and real-life examples, Scattered Minds is an essential read for parents of children with ADHD, or for adults navigating neurodiversity and attention difficulties.

Critic Reviews

Gabor Maté’s connections—between the intensely personal and the global, the spiritual and the medical, the psychological and the political—are bold, wise and deeply moral. He is a healer to be cherished and this exciting book arrives at just the right time
His medical background and lucid writing style make complex biological processes accessible to non-scientific readers.
Rare and refreshing. . . . Here you will find family stories, an accessible description of brain development and sound information. You will also find hope.
