"This is an excellent book for patients with bipolar illness . . . It gives patients and their families enough information without being overwhelming and overly technical. The tone is practical but compassionate toward patients and family members suffering through this difficult illness. Good resource sections provide more extensive reading and online data. I would highly recommend this book."—Doody's Review Service, reviewing a previous edition or volume

"The marvel of this book is its ability to present information in a detailed, understandable manner, while avoiding pitfalls of being overly weighted in professional jargon or skimpy in specific neurological and behavioral detail."—Journal of Psychosomatic Research, reviewing a previous edition or volume
