WITH A NEW PREFACE BY THE AUTHOR
In her bestselling classic, "An Unquiet Mind, "Kay Redfield Jamison
changed the way we think about moods and madness.
Dr. Jamison is one of the foremost authorities on manic-depressive
(bipolar) illness; she has also experienced it firsthand. For even
while she was pursuing her career in academic medicine, Jamison
found herself succumbing to the same exhilarating highs and
catastrophic depressions that afflicted many of her patients, as
her disorder launched her into ruinous spending sprees, episodes of
violence, and an attempted suicide.
Here Jamison examines bipolar illness from the dual perspectives of
the healer and the healed, revealing both its terrors and the cruel
allure that at times prompted her to resist taking medication. "An
Unquiet Mind "is a memoir of enormous candor, vividness, and
wisdom--a deeply powerful book that has both transformed and saved
lives.
