Customer Reviews
Easy introduction and useful background information - Rated The first 100 pages are based on conversations between the author and his doctor/friend/co-author (Dr Tony Hughes). When I first read a book written in this style, I wondered, what was the point of using so many words? This book is totally different in that Jeremy has such a great sense of humour and rich life experiences that it is a pleasure to read, whether in big chunks or just a few pages now and then in a busy day. Many of the author's experiences will seem all too familiar with fellow bipolar people, whilst those without this gift/curse will gain a lot more understanding. The middle section contains short and very varied stories from bipolar people, who on the whole are now on the road of recovery. I liked these strong rays of hope! The final section is a glossary of terms that come up frequently when talking about mood disorders. At first glance it looks like a brief medical dictionary, but Jeremy's humour comes through here again. I think the light hearted approach to what for many is a very serious condition is refreshing and should increase the appeal of this book for a wide audience.
