Antidepressants, happiness | Salon Books: Jan 29, 9:19pm 1 review health, drugs, pharma
http://www.salon.com/books/review/2008/01/29/antidepressants/; "But soon enough the good feelings gave way to a backlash: Where there was once "Listening to Prozac," now there is David Healy's "Let Them Eat Prozac." "Authentic Happiness" has been countered by the newly published "Artificial Happiness: The Dark Side of the New Happy Class" by Ronald W. Dworkin. In 2005, it was Kramer's "Against Depression"; now it's Eric G. Wilson's "Against Happiness." Yet the recent volley of books represents more than an attack on our current overreliance on drug therapy to treat depression. They rip into the massive sales of the drug companies, dispute the medical thinking behind doping the populace and question whether the antidepressant advocates understand depression, happiness or the human mind."
