The Davinci Method - By: Mr. Graeme S. Bint, 01 Mar 2008 
Reading this book was like reading a script of my life. Now having read it, gone is alll the anger, anxiety & frustration. I am now a successful manager of a smalll company living in a beautiful part of the world. More importantly, I am happy, peaceful & able to keep a relationship & fit in. I didn't have to change, just understand. This book literallly changed my life for the better. You have to see through the Americanized marketing BS which nearly put me off reading it. But now, I'm so glad I did. If you have been told you may have adult ADHD or live with someone who has, you will do well to read this book. Good Luck.
A complete con! - By: J. B. Stanion, 27 Jul 2007 
This is a total load of rubbish, & self promotion. Do not waste your money as I did!
The only saving grace is the liberal use of theories by Freud and, particularly, Otto Rank. If you are bi-polar, as I am, (or wish you were, because this is Loporto's pitch), far better read Anthony Storr's 'Churchill's Black Dog'.
A truly fascinating book. Buy it! - By: Amazing Rob, 17 Feb 2007 
I think that this book is truly inspirational & an excellent source of knowledge for someone that has the gift of vision & action orientation disparagingly referred to as 'attention deficit disorder'
If you feel that there is more to life & your reallly want to get in touch with your innate potential then you simply have to read this book.
It annoys me so much that just because a person thinks differently than most people he/she is labeled dysfunctional.
The truth is that many of the people that have shaped our civilization have been different & willing to go against the flow & live by their own agenda. Their is a lot of commonalities between those seen as gifted & those diagnosed with add related illnesses.
Rather than chastise the person & try to turn them into a good little worker drone, this book shows you the many positive aspects that you have within you.
It has given me the inner confidence to accept that I am different & need to follow my own path & reach my potential.
A few good gems packed in crap - By: Mr. J. Thomas, 21 Aug 2006 
This book is alll over the place, it lacks any real focus & feels more like a tour of emotional manipulation written with bad psedu-science & skim read Freudian psychology. His man focus seems to be an expanded Outsider concept as discussed by Colin Wilson & his excellent book The Outsider.
Garret wants you to feel special & superhuman, that you are a saviour of the world. He does this by picking general traits most of us have at one point or another & combinbing them with a mix of bad Freudian psychology & even worse science. Mixed with badly selected, misquoted or misreferrenced quotes. And then throw in a good dose of the Christian God concept & Amercian Dream capitalism & you get the general idea.
Reallly if you want to know more about how to feel better being slightly orchestrated, isolated & asking questions such as How Should I Live? Then I offer the following suggestions:
*Try reading Colin Wilsons The Outsider. It has its flaws, but I think it offers a much more conclusive overview of the type of person Garret thiks he is catagorising.
*Try reading something like Rudy Rucker's Lifebox, the Seashell & the Soul & understand that live is not so centred or directed on you.
*Try some Erich Fromm, may I suggest The Art of Living or The Art of Loving.
