More about the book

The narrative centers on Jonathan Love's 2006 lawsuit against the organization behind the Law School Admissions Test, claiming he needed extra time due to his ADHD diagnosis. The case, featuring psychologist Michael Gordon as an expert witness, sparked a significant federal ruling that continues to ignite debate about the definition of disability, the potential for malingering, and the implications of accommodations for those without legal disabilities. Gordon explores the courtroom dynamics and broader societal questions surrounding ADHD and disability rights.
