Summary: Very Insightful Account of Mental Health Treatment
Review: This book is interesting reading for anyone who wants to know more about the mental health treatment 'industry' as displayed at one hospital. Dr. Klitzman's frank account from the perspective of a resident in training gives honest and open insight and opinions into the various treatment methods he learned to administer. He also explores his responses, perceptions and disagreements with these methods. However, the accounts are not overly-clinical, but are told from a very humane perspective.
