PositiveLibrary JournalDavid creates a work that reads like a memoir. The cases are distinct, the diagnoses elusive, and the personality of each patient comes through with warmth and care. The author doesn\'t gloss over the reality that sometimes there are no definitive answers or perfectly happy endings, but he maintains a spark of hope that keeps the narrative from becoming bleak ... Readers seeking a realistic approach to understanding the potential causes of mental illness will appreciate David\'s thought-provoking reflections, as will mental health professionals and fans of Oliver Sacks\'s The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat.
