The Noonday Demon examines depression in personal, cultural, and scientific terms. Drawing on his own struggles with the illness and interviews with fellow sufferers, doctors, scientists, politicians and philosophers, Solomon reveals the subtle complexities and agony of the disease. He confronts the challenge of defining the illness and describes the vast range of medications and the efficacy of alternative treatments. This award-winning author takes readers on a journey into the most pervasive of family secrets.

Description in Spanish: En esta obra conmovedora y bellamente escrita, Andrew Solomon analiza los complejos fenómenos de la depresión, el estrés y la forma en que vivimos. Para ello, se basa en su experiencia personal y en la narración de la lucha de otros afectados,y se fija como objetivo trazar un panorama completo de este síndrome, que él resiste a llamar enfermedad y que más bien considera una experiencia emotiva que se puede vivir de forma positiva. Solomon afronta este estudio con una actitud realista y esperanzada, tratando de investigar y resaltar los aspectos positivos de la depresión. Con este objetivo resume las teorías científicas existentes, al tiempo que critica a quienes la clasifican como enfermedad e intentan curarla mediante medicamentos, mientras aún se desconocen las causas que la provocan.
