Married to Distraction is about the challenges to marriage in our intense, high-speed culture, not about ADHD.  I have adults who might have the ADHD syndrome to use the overview/descriptive Screening tool pp 92-96, to help clarify their situation.  I ask them mindfully to assess [Yes, No or I Don’t Know] for each chunk, and to have someone who knows them Well rate them on this tool separately and independently.   The results of both ratings must be discussed with me [or another ADHD expert] before drawing any conclusions, because misinterpretations of the brief descriptions is otherwise highly likely.  Psychological testing, while always interesting, is unnecessarily expensive and inefficient in most cases of Adult ADHD, if the clinician is an ADHD specialist, which most clinicians are not.
