Lost connections : uncovering the real causes of depression -- and the unexpected solutions
(Book)

Includes index.

Across the world, Hari found social scientists who were uncovering evidence that depression and anxiety are not caused by a chemical imbalance in our brains. They postulate that they are largely caused by key problems with the way we live today. Hari's journey took him from a series of experiments in Baltimore, to an Amish community in Indiana, to an uprising in Berlin. Once he had uncovered nine real causes of depression and anxiety, they led him to scientists who are discovering seven very different solutions.
