In addition to Kirsch's book, I'd also recommend Anatomy of an Epidemic. It does a really good job explaining the biological reasons why SSRI's can't work. (Plus it also outlines all of the different reasons why the science behind them is fraudulent, same as Kirsch.)



I'll recommend Whitaker's book, too.

You can check out some of the original scientific studies he cites on his website, though it of course makes more sense with his context http://robertwhitaker.org/robertwhitaker.org/Depression.html


Good call. His blog is also phenomenal, but it would probably be difficult to fully understand unless you've read his book first.
