About this title

Review

"This book is a superlative overview of the key treatment interventions available today to relieve the suffering of depression." ––John P. Docherty, M.D., professor of clinical psychology and director of clinical services, Cornell University School of Medicine

"Manages to maintain a clear, direct style with remarkably little jargon. This book would be most useful in a hospital library as a reference source to better understand depression and it′s treatment, especially if the referring doctor is prescribing medication." ––Helen R. Beiser, M.D., CMS Review Panel, (from Chicago Medicine Vol. 99, No. 17, September 22, 1996)
