Title:
"Serotonin and Depression: A Disconnect between the Advertisements and the Scientific Literature"
by
Jeffrey R. Lacasse, Jonathan Leo*Here's the url:
http://medicine.plosjournals.org/perlserv/?request=get-document&doi=10.1371%2Fjournal.pmed.0020392&ct=1This 2005 article politely lays into drug-advertising that pushes the Serotonin Hypothesis--I personally found it cathartic to read, given the way that paradigm has (counterproductively, in my opinion) dominated depression research until recently. I thought I'd post the link in case some of you might be interested and hadn't already seen it.
