I have used this guide as resource material for several of my clients. It is straight forward, comprehensive and easy to read. -- A registered mental healthcare nurse, Texas, 1989
I was recently made aware of this information booklet about lithium and manic depression by a physician who I recently visited. The booklet is the most concise and informative document that I have read thus far relating to lithium and manic depression. I have been taking lithium for seventeen years, and needless to say, I have at times had a lot of apprehension about side effects, toxicity, etc. I have spent a great deal of time in libraries trying to get information about lithium and it is very sparse. -- A patient, Arizona, 1990 --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
