Listening to Prozac Cover

Listening to Prozac

by Peter D. Kramer

Buy on Amazon
"I remember the book 'Listening to Prozac' from when Prozac and similar drugs first emerged, and the excitement that surrounded them. Nowadays, I hear more about the problems associated with these drugs, and perhaps it's because I engage in both scientific and wellness communities where the focus is on behavioral change."
Dry Cover

Buy on Amazon
"It's analogous to what Augusten Burroughs wrote in 'Dry': his initial drink felt like a magic elixir that melded seamlessly with his physiology.
