Summary:[...] for Daniel J. Carlat, I am a member of the "lost" generation of psychiatrists approaching retirement age, those trained prior to the advent of the psychopharmacology explosion and whose points of view are primarily psychotherapeutic, those who regard medication as adjunctive rather than the other way around. Like many good, well-written popular books that consider a medical or psychological matter, this is valuable book for the mental health practitioner, for psychiatrists especially.
