Although ADHD symptoms are clearly defined by DSM 5, it influences the life of each person in many different and variable ways. ADHD is not a single phenomenon with simple causes and simple manifestations. One of the main characteristics of ADHD is variability. Variability in etiology, genetics, biology of the disorder, symptomatology and especially real life manifestation. To understand ADHD means to understand its high variability that is one of the most typical signs of this diagnosis. The present book approaches ADHD from the perspective of its variability.
