This book is inspirational and a must-red for those who have ADHD or care about someone with ADHD.” This book did for our family what years of being in and out of therapy failed to accomplish. It helped us to understand and appreciate each other’s unique way of doing and seeing.”, Janie Bowman, mother of an ADHD adolescent Since ADHD is a collection of skills and predilections necessary for the success and survival of a good Hunter, we’re left with the question, “What about non-ADHD people?” Where did their skills evolve from, and why do they represent the majority of the people in our culture? The same is true of Tay-Sachs disease, a genetic condition that hits mainly Eastern European Jews, and confers on them a relative immunity to tuberculosis. And even cystic fibrosis, the deadly genetic disease common among Caucasians (one in twenty-five white Americans carries the gene), may represent a genetic adaptation—recent research indicates the cystic fibrosis gene helps protect its victims, at younger ages, from death by such diarrheal diseases as cholera, which periodically swept Europe for thousands of years.

Pioneer thinker Thom Hartmann gives us specific, workable ways to identify self-limiting beliefs, and replace them with open-ended visions of possibility.” After Thom Hartmann’s first two books on ADD, the metaphor of the hunter began to provide many ADDers with an acceptable label for their quirkiness and a way of looking at themselves that was full of hope and permission.

It is useful to look at what is called a bell-shaped distribution of these traits with the majority of the population in the middle. If we think of this distribution as lying along a 12 inch ruler, then those with extremely focused consciousness may appear in the 2 to 3 inch area, while those with an extremely open consciousness or inability to focus is in the 9 to 10 inch area. The relaxing average person would fall at the middle or in the 5 to 7 inch area, while the relaxed Hunter would be found in the 7 to 8 inch area and the relaxed Farmer in the 4 to 5 inch area. It has also been suggested that the autistic person might fall at zero to 1 inch and the schizophrenic in the 11 to 12 inch area (pg. 55-56).ADHD: A Hunter in a Farmer’s World, 3rd Edition: A Hunter in a Farmer's World Thom Hartmann,Michael Popkin - foreword,Robin Douglas,Inner Traditions Audio Rar Naka, Izumi; Nishida, Nao (2011).

The women were content to wait around for the men to return from hunting while they daydreamed the day away. Even today we often find men and women with ADHD marrying one another. We are compatible in so many ways! My speculation even has an explanation for the minority of women with hyperactivity and high energy. They were hunters, probably of the smaller creatures, and they married men with inattentive ADHD who waited for them to return, adding interest and excitement to their lives.
