failed narration

wow, what a loss. potentially amazing and enlightening content completely rendered un-listenable by the inert narration. Dr Russell Barkley when presenting his content in an online video presents with interest, enthusiasm and conviction, it's engaging and informative. the narration of this book was sleepy, lack lustre and uninspired, it would barely be suited to a bed time story. please, redo this book with a narrator that delivers.
