Back to Normal is the authoritative examination of all the factors that contribute to the
overdiagnosis and misdiagnosis of ADHD, autism-spectrum, and bipolar disorders in our nation's
children. Drawing on his extensive professional experience and current research, Gnaulati tells the
stories of wrongly-diagnosed children and shows both how and why schools, medical professionals, and
well-meaning parents are erroneously categorizing perfectly normal behavior as psychiatric disorders in
developing children. Back to Normal offers both a social critique of our under-psychologized nation and
a tool for parents to see the difference between serious conditions and behav ioral disturbances
stemming from developmental, familial, or social issues.
