Through fascinating case histories and revealing encounters with patients, Dr. Peter Kramer, author of the international bestseller Listening to Prozac,  provides a compassionate, immensely eloquent view of how psychiatry really works.

Dr. Kramer was recently asked to guest host The Infinite Mind, a weekly public radio show focusing on the art and science of the human mind and spirit, behavior, and mental health. Listen to the show now.

First line

Some time ago, I supervised a social worker who, though otherwise skilled at what she did, showed a discomfort with conflict or aggression so persistent-and she was really unbudgeable-that I began to become annoyed with her.
