Book Reviews of Brain Lock
Book Review: Unlocking OCD
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one of several recent good books on OCD. Incidentally they all seem to think the disorder is new to psychiatry and complain of patients having previously been misdiagnosed and mistreated, I think Foa and Foa's book is about the best in general as a self-help book. This is very well written, with Beverly Beyette named as a ghost. There are very long and detailed case histories, which are intensely readable just as stories. Schwartz emphasizes the possibility of an organic etiology. The explanation of brain imaging is especially lucid and I found itmore understandable than the original journal articles. It is the only OCD book with an extended discussion of the role of the family as enablers, and I will be recommending it especially to patents' families. There are no references to Internet or NIMH information recources
