Customer Reviews

The Davinci Method
Reading this book was like reading a script of my life. Now having read it, gone is all the anger, anxiety and frustration. I am now a successful manager of a small company living in a beautiful part of the world. More importantly, I am happy, peaceful and able to keep a relationship and fit in. I didn't have to change, just understand. This book literally changed my life for the better. You have to see through the Americanized marketing BS which nearly put me off reading it. But now, I'm so glad I did. If you have been told you may have adult ADHD or live with someone who has, you will do well to read this book. Good Luck.

A complete con!
This is a total load of rubbish, and self promotion. Do not waste your money as I did!
The only saving grace is the liberal use of theories by Freud and, particularly, Otto Rank. If you are bi-polar, as I am, (or wish you were, because this is Loporto's pitch), far better read Anthony Storr's 'Churchill's Black Dog'.

A truly fascinating book. Buy it!
I think that this book is truly inspirational and an excellent source of knowledge for someone that has the gift of vision and action orientation disparagingly referred to as 'attention deficit disorder'

If you feel that there is more to life and your really want to get in touch with your innate potential then you simply have to read this book.

It annoys me so much that just because a person thinks differently than most people he/she is labeled dysfunctional.

The truth is that many of the people that have shaped our civilization have been different and willing to go against the flow and live by their own agenda. Their is a lot of commonalities between those seen as gifted and those diagnosed with add related illnesses.

Rather than chastise the person and try to turn them into a good little worker drone, this book shows you the many positive aspects that you have within you.

It has given me the inner confidence to accept that I am different and need to follow my own path and reach my potential.
