The Antidepressant Era
Against a backdrop of changing ideas about medicine, this book details the origins of the pharmaceutical industry, the pressures for the regulation of drug companies, and the emergences of the idea of a depressive disease. This historical and neurochemical analysis leads to a clear look at what antidepressants reveal about both the workings of the brain and the sociology of drug marketing.
