Product Description
Synopsis
In this text, Samuel Barondes explores the relationship between genes and mental disorders. Focusing on manic-depressive disorder, Barondes discusses whether abnormalities in specific genes can lead to mental dysfunction. Barondes then argues that identification of these genes may allow us to prevent manic depression and develop new treatments.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thanksgiving day- cover to cover. Outstanding, 27 Nov 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Mood Genes: Hunting for the Origins of Mania and Depression (Hardcover)
Absolutely one of the most fascinating books I've ever read. Entirely honest. Very even-handed about the history and current state of affairs in this field. I come from a family riddled with some sort of mental dilemma(probably manic-depressive) including most recently two adolescent sons. All have been remarkably successful, but devilish all the way. I hold out hope for my sons, but see little progress while they wear myself and ex-wife to a frazzle. What a vast wealth of knowledge Dr. Barondes shares with us. I read this book cover to cover on Thanksgiving Day. I recommend it to anyone, whether your family has mental illness or not.
