This is probably one of the best books I've read that talk about mental health so openly and beautifully. I'm ready to stand on the top of a cliff and yell out praises for this book while encouraging every single person in this universe to give it a read.

What I perhaps find the best about this book is the direct and simple to understand writing style that the author uses. He does not beat around the bush and yet explains each and every point in such a way that anyone, even someone with no prior knowledge of psychology can understand him.

The author addresses both the sides of each and every topic and argument and goes into the details of what he supports and why. He has quite a compelling writing voice that drew me in, making it impossible to put the book down. I learnt a lot of new stuff despite being a psychology student myself. So many myths regarding mental health were also addressed very well and gently but firmly discarded after giving logical reasons and proofs. I love how well the author had researched into the topics as he went on quoting many famous and not so famous psychologists.

And one of the most commendable things that I've never had the pleasure of seeing an author do is allow others to hold debates and arguments over topics and his work itself but without stating that the other's claims are invalid and only when baked by logic and proof. I'll end this review with a couple of my favourite lines from this book.

"Criticize me, criticize my work but do so with the support of credible research or sound logic. It is not criticism that scares me, but destructive power of time that does."
