The drug's manufacturer, Novartis, claims that Ritalin is the \"solution\" to this widespread problem. But hidden behind the well-oiled public-relations machine is a potentially devastating reality: children are being given a drug that can cause the same bad effects as amphetamine and cocaine, including behavioral disorders, growth suppression, neurological tics, agitation, addiction, and psychosis.\u003ci\u003e Talking Back to Ritalin \u003c\/i\u003euncovers these and other startling facts and translates the research findings for parents and doctors alike. An advocate for education not medication, Dr. Breggin empowers parents to channel distracted, disenchanted, and energetic children into powerful, confident, and brilliant members of the family and society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Breggin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0738205443\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780738205441\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Da Capo Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/17\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.98h x 6.02w x 1.15d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2002 pg. 1075\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2001 pg. 123","brand":"Peter Breggin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990292168959,"sku":"9780738205441","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ffb6d2dd-1ae6-470a-972d-fd2890ca0565.jpg?v=1683303979","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/talking-back-to-ritalin-peter-breggin-9780738205441","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
