"Shannon attempts to keep the diagnostic-labeling fad at bay by
highlighting the importance of examining the whole child. . . . As
a child and adolescent healthcare provider, I support the way
Shannon encourages the public to think about children and their
brains in nuanced terms and to take a holistic approach to their
well-being. . . . Shannon has written a must-read for parents."
