Harry Magnet's review: A Psychiatrist Criticizes His Own Profession: A Review of “Unhinged” by Daniel Carlat

Click here or on the title of this post, and read Harry Magnet's Blog extensive review of psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Carlat's book, Unhinged.

Carlat, if you aren't familiar with him, was once an Effexor sales hired gun, until he gave it up, had a mea culpa and decided to counter-detail by returning to a few doctor's offices and explaining the drug in more real terms.

Carlat, is the Editor-in-Chief at The Carlat Psychiatry Report, as well as a doctor-blogger.

Read Carlat's SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2007 Dr. Drug Rep blog post where he tells of his $30K he earned in 2002 along with the link to the NYT article discussing that.



Carlat's book, "Unhinged" was published about the same time as Robert Whitaker's Anatomy of an Epidemic.

Harry's blog has reviews of BOTH books.

Take a look.
