> I like the book. His approach is another matter and is controversial. The book though is a great short reference to a lot of stuff. I refer to it a lot.
I've got both editions. Both are currently lent out. I find they're useful in helping the 'uninitiated' come to terms with the idea of taking medication for mental illness. It's all pretty easy to understand.
>You should let Neil know about your view of him as a pdoc. He will find it helpful.
I don't want it to appear that I'm waging some sort of campaign against the guy but Neal's welcome to ask Qs.
Re: opiate use (you mention in another post). Jensen does acknowledge that opiates may have a role to play in treating depression but I got the impression he thought none of the *currently available* opioids were suitable for long-term (or even ST) use. Could be wrong tho'.
