I loved reading this book. It was difficult to lay it down. My heart aches for the mentally ill. I am a psych nurse--and I know the issues--court problems and goverment problems that each person with a mental illness faces--and this book brings it out prefectly. I would recommend anyone interested in mental health issues to read this book.

I just recently read this book and in one sitting. I couldn't put it down. It definitely gives you a different out look on our mental health care today and makes you think. I believe that our country has gone backwards in its care for the mentally ill. If your interested in mental health, mental illness, this is the book to read.

He is great...I was his patient for anxiety and panic attacks in Kaiser hospital a couple years back. He then moved back to LA...so I had to get another doctor. I wish he was around for more advice. He made things easy for me.

I worked in the Psych Hospital he is describing and everything he talks about is true! The book is so well written, it reads like a novel. I couldn't put it down
