Reviews

Many of the case vignettes represent some of the patients who have been referred to me because they suffer from treatment resistant depression. Several chapters cover patient populations that are often underrepresented in the current literature. While I would recommend reading the first chapter before the other chapters, any chapter can be read in a relatively short time to get clear and concise information on a specific case. The well-written concluding chapter on genetics updates readers on the current research in this exciting area, which has great potential for use in treatment resistant depression. While complementary and alternative treatments are interspersed throughout the book, a specific chapter that reviews all of the potential treatment options that patients are pursuing outside of the traditional medical model, and the research findings behind those treatments, would have been a helpful addition.

This book provides the reader with a well written and concise review of the current literature regarding treatment-resistant depression. It is targeted toward providing treating clinicians with an overview of currently developed treatment algorithms for treatment-resistant depression as well as toward providing them with information on other avenues that they may not have considered.
