I work in ed tech, I have ADHD (runs in the fam), so I'm very interested in this topic. Ironically my mind wanders while I'm reading it because it's so "technical" and "sciency." (I hate myself for use by that word. ?)
I'm really hoping the biological breakdown of how our brains work starts translating into info more applicable to my interests. I'm a selfish reader.
*I AM finding an appreciation for how AMAZING our brains are though.
