Synopsis
With sharp and soulful insight, T. M. Luhrmann examines the world of psychiatry, a profession which today is facing some of its greatest challenges from within and without, as it continues to offer hope to many. At a time when mood-altering drugs have revolutionized the treatment of the mentally ill and HMO's are forcing caregivers to take the pharmacological route over the talking cure, Luhrmann places us at the heart of the matter and allows us to see exactly what is at stake. Based on extensive interviews with patients and doctors, as well as investigative fieldwork in residence programs, private psychiatric hospitals, and state hospitals, Luhrmann's groundbreaking book shows us how psychiatrists develop and how the enormous ambiguities in the field affect its practitioners and patients.

    Item is as exactly as described, and arrived just on time, packed well. As others have said, it wasn't exactly shipped at light speed, but it was a really good deal and everything went to plan. Just make sure you don't need the item for a month or so. (My order was placed May 12, with estimated delivery window May 22 - Jun 11. Tracking number was provided Jun 2, with delivery on Jun 11.)

    The item was spot-on, even better than the photos, and arrived in perfect condition. The packaging was highly professional, which is why the item came in superb, pristine condition. The seller was excellent with their communication, and I could not have been happier. I WILL buy from them again!
