"Written in an easy-to-read manner, the book examines the disorder's demographic, biological, and psychological aspects, considers its antecedents in childhood experiences, evaluates stress in bringing on depression, and looks at it's relation to alcohol and drug abuse. The latter part is devoted to treatment, providing thorough discussions of antidepressant medicines, psychotherapy, and electroconvulsive therapy"--Provided by publisher.
