Synopsis

Beyond Depression, written by a practicing GP, is a radical insiders' critique of prevailing views about the diagnosis and management of depression. It recommends alternative approaches based on enabling people in distress to generate a sense of purpose and meaning, with doctors concentrating on listending rather than prescribing. The book combines scientific analysis with extensive literary and philosophical sources and a series of sensitive case analyses.
