The Best Book Ever Written on Psychiatric Drugs!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Do not purchase a psychiatric drug without owning this book first!! Everyone who has taken or is considering taking a psychiatric drug or has a friend or a family member who is taking or thinking about taking one of these drugs must own this book. Even if you simply want to learn more about psychiatric drugs on the market, this book is a must have. It is fabulous and definitely the most comprehensive and informative book of its kind.
Exceptional - but now ten years old...

This book is a terrific primer, not just about psychiatric drugs, but on psychiatric illnesses, their classification and symptoms. Additionally, the authors include a number of case histories, some successful, some not. Numerous questions are asked and answered in an easy-to-read, concise format. The first 363 pages are on these generalized topics and are extremely well done. The remaining 248 pages are on specific drugs, with two pages devoted to each medication. The glossary and index are complete and well done. My only disappointment is that the book was published in 1992. If the authors updated the book for newer drugs and increased knowledge of psychiatric illnesses, I would purchase the revised edition in an instant. Still, the original book is the best I've read on the subject and is "must" reading for anyone who wants a better understanding of psychiatric illnesses and medications.
