<p>One could scarcely have been alive and conscious anywhere in the Western world any time in the past twenty-five years and not have been aware of a raging controversy surrounding antidepressants, suicide, and violence—a controversy that shows no sign of abating. During that same period, prescriptions for antidepressants have skyrocketed. So what is the story? Do these drugs drive people to suicide, or do they not? What about homicide? Are they addictive? Do they even help with depression? Author and researcher Patrick D. Hahn has examined the scientific literature and the trial transcripts. He’s listened to doctors and the patients. He’s cross-checked the facts. And now, he has reconstructed the story to tell the truth about how these drugs are made and sold.<br />
“A compelling account of some of the most tragic mental health events. Hahn’s touch is sure and the narrative races along. You may find yourself devouring it in one sitting—and then going back for more.” ~ David Healy, McMaster University, author of Pharmageddon<br />
“A beautifully written page-turner. It should be read by every doctor who prescribes these drugs and by anyone who is considering taking one.” ~ Irving Kirsch, Harvard Medical School, author of The Emperor’s New Drugs</p>
