Extractions: These are among the books we regard as most helpful to family and friends of people with bipolar disorder who are trying to understand the disorder, the behaviors that arise from it, and the often difficult path to finding effective treatment. The list is divided into four sections: Autobiography/Biography Mental Illness in General Self Help and Other Books The following reviews are not the opinions of a professional critic. Rather, they're the opinions of the parent of an adult child diagonosed with Bipoar Disorder at the age of 20, and who is now, at this writing, 28. Even before my daughter was diagnosed with this illness, I had begun trying to understand what was "wrong" with her, for the behaviors she began exhibiting were entirely uncharacterisitc of her "normal" demeanor. So I went to books. First, to my old Abnormal Psychology book from college days, which pointed me toward researching major mental illness such as szchiophrenia and bipolar disorder. As a graduate of liberal arts (Smith College) with a major in philosophy, I lean toward the less scientific and more personal expositions only because I tend to understand more thoroughly and completely through personal accounts with which I can identify. Consequently, this listing tends to be heavier on the personal side, and much less so on the scientific or clinical side. That represents nothing more than personal preferance in reading material, for the above reason, but the person who is reading these reviews would do well to take this into account when considering both the reviews and the ratings.
