Reviews
"Peter is a pioneer, an adventurer, an inventor and a seer. His advice is the best kind of advice. It is advice learned in the trenches, in the arena, on the fields of life."
--Edward Hallowell, MD, from the Foreword, bestselling author of Driven to Distraction "Peter Shankman is living proof that living outside the bell-shaped curve, combined with a drive to succeed, can produce amazing results."
--Jordan D. Metzl, MD, author of The Exercise Cure "While ADHD may be considered a 'deficit' to some, Shankman positions it as an attribute within the context of our immediate future. ADHD is a unique gift of creative synthesis that makes sense only inside of the complex digital networks and hyper-stimulation that now defines us."
--Amanda Steinberg, CEO, Worth Financial and author of Worth It
