Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the discourse surrounding attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), this book examines its origins, development, and representation through various competing theories. It posits that medical categories are shaped by cultural meanings and social processes, not just scientific facts. Through critical discursive psychology, the authors analyze historical contexts, media portrayals, and personal narratives, revealing how social identity and cultural stereotypes influence the understanding of ADHD. The exploration includes the interplay of biological and psychosocial explanations within a culture of 'Othering' and blame.
