"Disconnected Kids offers a visionary new approach for
helping many children with brain-based problems. These valuable
clinical insights add much to our tool kit for caring. "
-Daniel Goleman, Emotional Intelligence
"Dr. Melillo's thesis and proposed intervention give hope to all
affected parties (children, parents and clinicians) that
neurobehavioral disorders of childhood can be eradicated one day in
the near future by relying primarily on behavioral and cognitive
treatments."
-Metapsychology Reviews
"I found the book to be very interesting and informative, including
case studies of children he claims have been cured of some of these
disorders, as well as checklists of ways to identify whether or not
your child may have a brain deficiency or delay and what side of
the brain may be involved. It does seem to bring a ray of hope, as
many of us have come to believe that there is no cure for disorders
like autism."

"I HIGHLY recommend reading this book! It was very enlightening to
me. I do believe that his philosophy on these disorders is accurate
and his approach to helping them is valid."
