The Loss of Sadness: How psychiatry transformed normal sorrow into depressive disorder
Horwitz, Allan V., PhD (Professor of Sociology, Professor of Sociology, Rutgers University, USA)
Recognising that depression is a devastating illness that affects some people, this book argues that the increased prevalence of major depressive disorder is due not to a genuine rise in mental disease, as many claim, but to the way that normal human sadness has been "pathologised" since 1980.
