However, in reality, ECT is a safe and effective treatment for cases of clinical depression and catatonia that are unresponsive to drug therapy. Also, unlike drugs, ECT has relatively few side effects. The authors argue that it is time for this historically stigmatized procedure to be reevaluated. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe authors make a strong case for greater professional and public attention to the procedure's benefits, offering historical coverage of ECT-related movements, legislation, public and practitioner sentiment and the introduction of competing treatments. This volume will not only garner the interest of mental health professionals, but will call on policy makers and ethicists to examine its arguments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jan-Otto Ottosson,Max Fink\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 041594659X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415946599\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/17\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.34h x 6.42w x 0.56d","brand":"Jan-Otto Ottosson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086669721855,"sku":"9780415946599","price":55.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a850b657-009f-4c0e-8b27-6b49b8535a80.jpg?v=1769095926","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ethics-in-electroconvulsive-therapy-jan-otto-ottosson-9780415946599","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
