Summary
Greenberg shows how the idea that depression is a widespread chronic disease has been packaged by brilliant scientists, doctors, and marketing experts -- and why it is has become wildly successful in the marketplace of ideas. He then asks what we gain and lose by taking this approach, and who benefits when we do.
