Seller's Description:
New. 0816040478. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request ***-*** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT-288 pages----Choose us, for the information you need, with personal service--DESCRIPTION: --Library Journal This newest addition to the publisher's continuing series of single-volume social/medical disorder references is coauthored by journalist Roesch and psychiatrist Jackson ( Melancholia and Depression, LJ 4/1/87). It contains over 500 entries on everything from causes and cures to the names of celebrities afflicted with the disease. Technical entries like ``alprazolam (Xanax)'' and ``depressive spectrum disorder'' appear amidst more mainstream entries such as ``baby boomers'' and ``blahs. '' The information is clear and current and the entries are varied in length, but there are a few disappointments: no specific entries for the history of depression, its relation to impotence and infertility (although ``cancer, '' ``hypertension, '' and ``AIDS'' appear); and the international self-help organization Recovery receives mention only in the appendix. However, an excellent bibliography compensates for these omissions and the ubiquitous literary/artistic/celebrity personality references. Recommended for most public libraries. Index not seen. --Janice Arenofsky, formerly with Arizona State Lib., Phoenix--with a bonus offer--
