Horn Book Review

This coherent series relates the basics about depression. It spotlights personal experiences, sometimes in the form of formulaically written running narratives (e.g., in Advertising, teenager Annette considers using antidepressants to help cope with her mother's death) and often accompanied by stiff staged photos. Each spread features a sidebar, chart, or photo to help break up the text. There are eight other fall 2006 books in the series. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Antidepressants titles: Antidepressants and Advertising, Antidepressants and Social Anxiety, Antidepressants and Suicide, The History of Depression, and ""Natural"" Alternatives to Antidepressants.] (c) Copyright 2010.
