The Inflamed Mind A radical new approach to depression By Edward Bullmore SOFTBACK, good condition - inscription and highlighted. minor shelf/edge wear 256 pages Published by Simon & Schuster Australia, 2019 ISBN: 1760853216 19.8 x 12.8 centimetres Worldwide, depression will be the single biggest cause of disability in the next 20 years. But treatment for it has not changed much in the last three decades. In the world of psychiatry, time has apparently stood still . . . until now. In this game-changing book, University of Cambridge Professor Edward Bullmore reveals the breakthrough new science on the link between depression and inflammation of the body and brain. He explains what we now know about how and why mental disorders can have their roots in the immune system, and outlines a future revolution in which treatments could be specifically targeted to break the vicious cycle of stress, inflammation and depression. The Inflamed Mind goes far beyond the clinic and the lab, exploring a whole new way of looking at how mind, brain and body all work together in a sometimes misguided effort to help us survive in a hostile world. It offers insights into the story of Western medicine, how we have got it wrong as well as right in the past, and how we could start getting to grips with depression and other mental disorders much more effectively in the future. 'This is an important book, a hopeful book, for anyone who wants to think about depression in a new way.' Tom Insel, CEO and President, Mindstrong Health. 'Psychiatry is on the brink of a revolution.' Sir Colin Blakemore, Professor of Neuroscience and Philosophy, University of London. Artikel-Nr. ABE-1676331199478
