5.0 out of 5 stars an important book, 2 Dec 2007

By	Paul J. Fitzgerald "author" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is an important book that should be read by everyone who has an interest in mental health, and that includes just about all of us. In many ways, this book is an extension of the ideas of Peter Kramer's Listening to Prozac and Michael Norden's Beyond Prozac, especially the former book. It's filled with useful information and plenty of detailed case studies, where I think case studies are a very useful and entertaining way to learn about the effects of psychiatric drugs. Is there really a large fraction of the population that exhibits symptoms bordering on overt mental illness? I think so and they probably could benefit from the right psychiatric drugs at the right doses, as long as those drugs don't have serious side effects for the given person. This is a highly enjoyable and enlightening read. Author of Adjust Your Brain: A Practical Theory for Maximizing Mental Health.
