I abhor this book. I haven't actually read it, nor do I care to, but "Depression for Dummies"? What's that supposed to mean. There is also a book, "Bipolar for Dummies". This is a disgrace, and follows along the lines of 'gardening for dummies' and 'Word for dummies'. Don't know how it got to the publisher, but someone thought it a good idea and a money-maker.

Hello. How are you? I hope you are fine and well tand that this beautiful day lasts with you through the evening :)

~Well of course they are going to make money off of it. Some really good books cost alot but it's worth going to the library and having a browse once in a while. I never buy anything, well.. maybe the paper once in a while.

I never heard of this until now, I once saw a t-shirt with "Dummies for Dummies" written on it and I burst out laughing in the middle of the street :)

They even have "Bipolar for Dummies", and you're right - it's all for the money.
