This is the same person referenced in the recent thread which contains a video link to Jamison talking about her illness. I think it was posted by HistoryTeach within the past 7 days, but i can't remember which day it was.
I'm more than half-way thru this book myself. It's not as easy of a read as "A Brilliant Madness" and some others on bipolar disorder and major depression, but also not as difficult to process or finish as "The Noonday Demon - An Atlas of Depression (which is interesting, but very detailed about the history of depression and such, so as slow a reader as i am, it is taking me a bit more to get thru it, but i'm nearly there).
