Descriptions and Prescriptions Review

Rating: 2 out of 2

Blurb: OCD, ADHD, PTSD, Bipolar Disorder . . . these are no longer just technical terms and medical diagnoses, they are part of our common vocabulary and culture.As Christians, we shouldn’t isolate ourselves from this discussion or dismiss these important issues. But we also should be careful not to accept the entire secular psychiatric diagnostic and treatment enterprise without question.

Review:This book was interesting in the aspect of using a Christ rendered approach to mental disorders, but I believe that a professional psychiatric approach to this book, would have been better. Overall I found this book to be very fascinating and encourage people to read it, but to not put so much stock into what he says. I think that if you are looking for a faith-based approach to your illness, then this is the book for you, but if your wanting a concrete answer and diagnosis, then go see a professional for that
