The Use and Misuse of Psychiatric Drugs: An Evidence-Based Critique (0470745711) cover image

Joel Paris is a professor of psychiatry and former department chair who has taught in a large university for 40 years. A researcher (with over 150 publications), a clinician, and the editor of a major journal, he has written/edited 12 books. He writes in a way that can readily be understood by clinicians.
Joel Paris is an active researcher, primarily in personality disorders and child & adolescent psychiatry, and both this and his considerable practical expertise enable him to argue intelligently both for and against the use of psychotropic medications. His background as a medical investigator and broad experience in teaching young psychiatrists about the use of drugs help him to make neutral judgments about complex issues.
