About the Authors

Jeff Strong: Jeff Strong is Founder and President of the REI Institute, a music medicine research center and clinic focusing on people with developmental disabilities, including those with AD/HD. His research on the use of auditory stimulus for people with developmental disabilities has been presented at over two dozen professional scientific conferences and has been featured in numerous books and journals. He is a recognized expert on the use of sound and music for people with AD/HD, having appeared on many radio and television programs, including two documentaries. His therapy is being used by thousands of people around the world. Mr. Strong is the bestselling author of six books and is an adult with AD/HD.

Michael O. Flanagan, MD: Michael Flanagan began his training in AD/HD at birth. In spite of constant distractibility and procrastination, he managed to get a B.G. (barely graduated) in Philosophy from Yale College and an M.D. from the University of New Mexico. He later recognized why his career had such a meandering course when he started working as a physician/therapist in Bob Gurnees Albuquerque AD/HD clinic. That was in 1992, when he figured out that he has AD/HD after having been through medical school and post-graduate training in neurobiology, neurology, and psychiatry. He is currently practicing neuropsychiatry in Albuquerque and Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Authors Acknowledgments

From Jeff Strong: Id like to thank all the folks at Wiley who got this book started Joyce Pepple, Holly Grimes, and Stacy Kennedy as well as my agent, Carol Susan Roth. Im also grateful to my project and copy editor Joan Friedman and technical editor Michele Novotni. Special thanks go to my coauthor, Michael Flanagan, and my friend, sounding board, and fellow author Elizabeth King. Most importantly, Id like to thank my wife, Beth, and daughter, Tovah, for their love and support during this arduous process.

From Michael Flanagan: I would like to thank all my patients over the last 20 years for living up to your name with patience and for teaching me all the things my teachers couldnt. Im sorry I wasnt more help to you, but hopefully you got something out of our relationship. Thanks, too, to Gaynor Wild, who taught me all I could learn about biochemistry and neuroscience, as well as putting in his two cents worth about psychodynamics and life. Thanks to Martin Pollock who gave me a chance to go to New Zealand, make some friends, and learn something more about neurology. Bob Gurnee deserves recognition for allowing me to get paid for learning about AD/HD. My wife, Valerie, should be given a medal for putting up with all my shenanigans that goes for all my other friends, enemies, associates, accomplices, bosses, critics, and creditors, as well.
