Are you spending your nights tossing and turning? Are you worrying about your bills, your job, your health as the precious night hours are dwindling away? What can be done?

ADD / ADHD

As more and more children are diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder, a majority of psychologists believe that medications such as Ritalin are necessary to regulate their behavior.

Dr. Dan Gottlieb will explore the latest research in the field of ADD and ADHD, and discuss different treatment options. Dan's guests are Dr. Gabor Mate and Dr. David Stein. Mate is the author of "Scattered, How Attention Deficit Disorder Originates And What You Can Do About It," Stein is Professor of Psychology at Longwood College, and the author of "Ritalin Is Not The Answer."

Psychology of Politics

Listen via Real Audio
The Republican Convention is putting the spotlight on Philadelphia, and Voices in the Family takes a look at some important issues surrounding politics today. We all remember lines like "read my lips, no new taxes," and most people feel that politicians lie all the time. Whatever happened to honesty? Dan Gottlieb's guest is Brad Blanton, the author of "Practicing Radical Honesty." Later on the show, we'll explore what life is like for women in the political arena, and why the number of women involved is so small.
