Dr. A.V. Srinivasan’s illuminating take on “Depression is a boon to the general public and especially to the affected patients, their families, friends and wellwishers. With the help of neurology, drugs are now available to provide relief to patients suffering from depression. According to medical science experts, depression does not come about for just one reason. It is caused by the influence of many things. It may be due to personal characteristics or biological factors. In the case of depressed patients, apart from the patients, their caregivers also face mental, physical and material problems. With time and patience, depression disappears like the morning dew. Truly, a book that should occupy everyone’s shelf!
