Summary:
"In this game-changing book, University of Cambridge Professor of Psychiatry Edward Bullmore reveals the breakthrough
new
science on the link between
depression
and inflammation of the body and brain. He explains how and why we now know that mental disorders can have their root cause in the immune system, and outlines a future revolution in which treatments could be specifically targeted to break the vicious cycle of stress, inflammation and
depression
. The
Inflamed
Mind
goes far beyond the clinic and the lab, representing a whole
new
way of looking at how
mind
, brain and body all work together in a sometimes misguided effort to help us survive in a hostile world. It offers insights into the story of Western medicine, how we have got it wrong as well as right in the past, and how we could start getting to grips with
depression
and other mental disorders much more effectively in the future."--From publisher.
