Common Sense gets to the crux of the matter.
on 9 February 2005
Having worked my way through Kolk (good), Babette R (good), and several others, I arrived at Herman - who promptly managed to hit the nail precisely on its head. This book is clear and organised, factual and carefully thought-out. That makes it unusual. What makes it exceptional is the weight given to information collected from patients, your basic raw data (not an area in which mental health medicine covers itself in glory). So the conclusions drawn should be accorded respect. Read it. Finally, basic common sense wins through. Thank you.
