The Edison Gene
ADHD and the Gift of the Hunter Child
Book • 2003
In 'The Edison Gene', Thom Hartmann argues that the characteristics associated with ADHD, such as creativity and impulsiveness, are not disorders but rather components of a highly adaptive skill set.
He suggests that these traits, similar to those of innovators like Thomas Edison, are vital for success in modern society.
Hartmann provides strategies for parents and educators to help children with these traits reach their full potential as innovators, inventors, and entrepreneurs.
