Research data shows that ECT is often more effective than alternative treatments, and safe too.

There is consistent evidence of benefits following state-of-the-art modified ECT.

This book is well-written and concise. It provides an overview of ECT that is evidence-based yet understandable by the average person. The author effectively uses clinical anecdotes to provide a “face” for the science. The book is organized in a user-friendly way.
