Meer over het boek

The resurgence of shock therapy, particularly electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), is explored as a safe and effective treatment for severe mental illnesses, despite its negative portrayal in media. Authors Edward Shorter and David Healy delve into ECT's controversial history, challenging misconceptions through case studies, interviews, and archival research. They argue for its efficacy as a frontline therapy, particularly for patients unresponsive to medications, offering hope to those suffering from debilitating depression and suicidal ideation.
