A review by subbasegirl
Het ontstoken brein by Edward Bullmore

3.0

Fascinating glimpse into Bullmore's career in psychiatry and drug development and the way in which mental illness has been considered and treated historically. The book is written at a basic level and Bullmore takes careful pains to explain new terms as he introduces him. For readers with some knowledge of neuroscience and/or immunology the text is a little introductory. But his bibliography provides a good resource for future reading. Bullmore's optimism is infectious and I can't help but hope that he is right and that we will see some breakthroughs in our understanding and treatment of depression in the near future.
