America has been the world leader in generating new mental health treatments and modern theories of the human psyche.

We categorize disorders, thereby defining mental illness and health, and then parade these seemingly scientific certainties in front of the world.

Now in a third edition, Robert M. Sapolsky's acclaimed and successful Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers features new chapters on how stress affects sleep and addiction, as well as new insights into anxiety and personality disorder and the impact of spirituality on managing stress. As Sapolsky explains, most of us do not lie awake at night worrying about whether we have leprosy or malaria. Instead, the diseases we fear-and the ones that plague us now-are illnesses brought on by the slow accumulation of damage, such as heart disease and cancer.

Publisher's summary
Since it was introduce in 1987, the antidepressant Prozac has been prescribed to nearly five million Americans. But what is Prozac? Reported to turn shy people into social butterflies and to improve work performance, memory, even dexterity, Prozac has changed millions of troubled lives - but not without raising troubling questions of interest to anyone who has ever tried to improve his or her life.
Is Prozac a medication, or a mental steroid...a cure for illness, or a chemical agent for cosmetic character change? In many cases, Prozac can make people more attractive, energetic, and socially acceptable - whether they're "ill" or not. But when a pill can appear to accomplish the work of countless therapy sessions, seminars, and self-help books and tapes, have we entered an age where pharmacological advances could make our notions of character, personality, and selfhood obsolete?
In the best-selling tradition of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for His Hat, psychiatrist Peter Kramer reads his best-selling, critically acclaimed exploration of these and other issues that sparked a national debate. Drawing on both dramatic case studies and the perceptions of a uniquely insightful thinker contemplating a cultural crossroads, Listening to Prozac will forever change the way you think of the human condition.

caused me to question my perception of myself
I can't understand why the other reviews are negative. This book gave me so much to think about, and I didn't find the author irritating in the least. He has a clinical tone, but that's to be expected from a psychiatrist.
I recently started on an antidepressant, and found that it made me feel better than my usual self: I have more energy, fewer worries, more fantastical dreams. This caused me to wonder if I've been depressed my whole life, or if this drug was giving me superpowers. Moreover, I wondered, what is this drug taking from me? How is my personality and sense of self entangled with my anxieties? This book doesn't have all the answers, but it certainly validated my concerns and gave me more information on the topic. Dr. Kramer seems to be wondering all the same things about the ethical implications of SSRIs, which is both deeply disturbing and endlessly thought provoking.
I would listen to this book a second time through.

A Few Tidbits of Worth
This audio version, abridged and outdated, is not worth one's time if you seriously want to learn about psycho(neuro)pharmacology and the doctor/patient experience.

Intriguing Thought Piece
The concept of using medications to enhance a person, rather than just treating illness, is intriguing. It's worth further discussion and thought, even more than 30 years since this book was written. I've encountered similar debates regarding stimulants, a drug class used to treat ADHD but with potential enhancing properties for those without the illness. The ethical implications are complex, making books like this one timeless and thought-provoking.

I needed Prozac after listening to this
If you're into pompous, superfluous and contrived authors, you will love this book. If I had actually been reading it, I never would have finished. Alas, I kept listening as I drove, hoping it would get better. Even sped him up a bit to no avail. Whatever points he had were completely buried in his avalanche of grandiose prose.
