Depressive Realism: Interdisciplinary perspectives (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781138543201)

This book argues that people with mild-to-moderate depression have a more accurate perception of reality than non-depressives. Drawing from central observations from various disciplines, this book argues that a radical honesty about human suffering might initiate wholly new ways of thinking, in everyday life and in clinical practice for mental health, as well as in academia.
