When first published in 1997 this groundbreaking work on the science of mood both redefined the field and--with compassion, understanding, and scientific rigor--made it accessible to those who would most benefit from the latest findings. Now, Peter Whybrow, one of the world's most distinguished psychiatrists, has updated his definitive account of mood disorders. In A Mood Apart he argues that disorders such as depression constitute afflictions of the self, exploring the human experience of manic depressive illness, and rediscovering the human being behind the diagnosis. Drawing on cutting-edge research and his experience as a clinician, he shows how the science and culture surrounding mood disorders have changed since the first edition. Nearly two decades since its original publication, A Mood Apart remains an essential book for anyone who has been affected by depression. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Considering that much of this book concerned brain chemistry, I thought it was reasonably understandable, and the style of writing mostly managed to avoid the denseness of a textbook. Whybrow addresses some of the various forms of talk therapies as well as medications, and he includes some helpful tables in the back of the book of anti-depressant drugs and mood stabilizers and their side effects. This is a good resource for people suffering from depression or bipolar disorder, or any other person who wants to learn about these illnesses. ( )
