Coping With Depression: From Catch-22 to Hope
"[Allen] masterfully walks through a variety of topics, like genetic predisposition, early childhood development, and stress as contributors to depression.... He gently exposes the patient's responsibility for change as a reason for hope rather than self-blame. Allen uses the most recent research on chronic depression and communicates it in a user-friendly way. The clinician can trust that the volume offers the patient the best available information in a sensitive manner."-- "Doody's Book Review Service", "May 2006"
