Authors Peg Dawson and Richard Guare have penned several books in the "Smart but Scattered" series, and I believe that this is the first book focusing on adults. They offer an overview of 11 executive skills areas, with a quiz that will help the reader determine his/her strengths and weaknesses. Following the quiz is an in-depth look at strategies to manage and improve each of the 11 skills.
This book offers many solid, practical solutions for people who are ready to make improvements (like any other program, in order to work, the first step is that the person actually wants to change his/her behavior). To that end, this book not as helpful for parents looking to help their children improve executive function skills (to be fair, it doesn't claim to be). If that's what you seek, turn toward the authors' books written specifically for children and teen behavior.
4 stars.
