Weaving together a psychological and scientific exploration of the subject with personal essays about individual suicides, Dr. Jamison brings not only her compassion and literary skill but all of her knowledge, research and clinical experience to bear on this devastating problem. In tracing the network of reasons underlying suicide, she brings us the critical biological and psychological factors that interact to cause suicide and the powerful treatments available from modern medicine.
