Depression Runs in Families

Beschreibung

"Depression runs in families." Above all, the goal of this book is to come to some conclusions about the meaning of that simple assertion, which has a far from simple ex- planation of meaning. This book is designed to address some of the gaps in previous research on depressive disorders in the family context: the sheer numbers of people with affective disorders marks them as our most common psychiatric problem.
The research presented in this monograph investigates how a woman suffering from depression affects her children, and more specifically, if the child is also at risk to develop depression or another psychopathological state.
