"[Tweedy''s] compelling analysis of [a] desperate situation draws on vivid encounters in outpatient clinics, emergency rooms and hospitals." -- Nature "The personal anecdotes will help readers understand the view from the doctor''s chair, and the argument for a ''collaborative care'' model convinces. It''s an edifying proposal for overhauling psychiatric treatment." -- Publishers Weekly "A charged, earnest argument for relaxing the distinction between body and mind in the treatment of both." --Kirkus Reviews "Tweedy offers a moving reminder that no individual is merely ordinary and calls for more available and comprehensive mental health care." -- Booklist "Tweedy offers what feels like a personal invitation into his office, his expertise and, most of all, his hard-earned wisdom. Tweedy is an excellent storyteller, making the people whom he treats unforgettably visible in all their complexities. He uses powerful descriptions that yield keen insights, showing us how the health care system sets doctors up to fail their patients, and offering solutions that will help.

"-- BookPage "With both empathy and expertise, Damon Tweedy demonstrates why mental health cannot be siloed away from the rest of healthcare.
