Summary: Moving
Comment: If someone were to ask me, "What scientist, by nature of their perspective, could ever understand the depths of humanity?" - I would pluck this book from my shelf and hand it to them. Whybrow truly investigates the subjective and the objective aspects of 'mood disorders' (in the clinical sense) and, by way of dialogue, synthesizes the two approaches into a singular perspective. He explores the emotional continuum - from mania to melancholia - in such a clear and concise fashion that anyone (scientist or humanist) can acquire knowledge, as well as wisdom, through Whybrow's book, A Mood Apart.

Summary: A Mood Apart in Paperback
Comment: "A Mood Apart: The Thinker's Guide to Emotion and Its Disorders" is not a new title from Dr. Whybrow who is one of the leading researchers in depressive, manic depressive, and mood disorders. This book is the paperback version of his 1997 hardback "A Mood Apart: Depression, Mania, and Other Afflictions of the Self". Please do not be confused into thinking this 1998 publication date is a brand new work like I did. This book still rates a 10 for content, information, & diversity. Maury Schiowitz

Summary: A Review Apart
Comment: I whole heartedly agree with all of the other reviews. This book is tremendously insightful. I would like to add that this is not a book solely about bi-polar and manic depression. It is also about unipolar depression. I found that to read about all these types of depression together to be very insightful about my own place amongst all the variations. And this was a very interesting point made by the book that all these types of variables do occur in people without the dehabilitating forms of these illnesses. The form of the illness is not out of the ordinary, so to speak. Excellent book. Layered with insights into biology, psychology, history, genetics, and evolutionary adaptation.
