The Noonday Demon by Andrew Solomon is clinically accurate, compassionate and inspired by the authors personal experience, insightful, immediately engaging, exceptionally articulate, well organized, with perfect metaphors and pointed examples. His book hits the nail on the head for those who have struggled with depression and related conditions. Solomon’s depth of understanding, compassion and inspiration of hope brought me to tears. I have ordered multiple copies for colleagues and patients so that they may benefit in treating and coping with anxiety and depression. Thank you Andrew Solomon. KM DeWitt
