I think Amen goes a little to far claiming to heal depression and anxiety. Althrough depression and anxiety have physical manifistations and treatments I think it is important to address the psycholgical cuases and issues that contribute to these problems.

Dr Amen, the world-famous leader in the development of Spect-scans has done it again! A easy to read. It’s very easy to identify, from his
checklists, if one is anxious or depressed, and to what extent. The nutritional and medication infomation is invaluable. Recommended for anyone who is Anxious or Depressed, or knows anyone who is.

J. Lucas Says:
The book reads like a pamphlet advertising the Amen Clinics. At the Amen Clinics this and at the Amen Clinics that, give me a break. This guy can’t go half a page without tooting his own horn. You would think that everywhere except the Amen Clinics, the treatment of mental disorders is by witch doctors and alchemists. The books makes a big deal about the use of brain scanning and how this is such a big advantage for their clinic. They shame insurance companies for not reimbursing payment and other doctors for not using the technique, but read closely. In the end, they still the patients are still treated just like anywhere else, symptomatically. One word for this book: lame.

After page 186, the book repeats pages 123 through 186. After the second page 186, the book jumps right to page 251. Page 187 through page page 250 are missing from the book. The information I was able to look through was really great. There must have been problems with the printing.

Informative, straight to the point and easy to read. I felt better as soon as I started reading it. I’m sharing in with all my friends and family. I could tell there was a woman’s touch to the book and that made all the difference. I loved it.
