Can anyone recommend a good book?

Posted by SDA on February 14, 2004, at 11:50:18

I'm looking for a book on psychiatric drugs that will give me the facts on how they were discovered, how they work, and their risks and dangers. I'm particularly interested in antidepressants (including Zoloft, Prozac, and Wellbutrin).

Thanks

Hi,
I hear Dr. Stephen Stahl's textbook(s) are well-written

Yeah, there is a good book called, Brain Basics, by a biological psychologist name Robert Williams. I don't know if it is avialable on Amazon.

What about Peter Breggin's books? I stumbled across his website a little while ago (www.breggin.com).

Wow, that Breggin is an anti-med zealot.
