Into the Abyss: A Neuropsychiatrist's Notes on Troubled Minds by Anthony David

4.0

I would rate this more like a 3,5 than a 4, but I'm rounding up because it was by no means a bad book, I just would have liked some kind of an overarching narrative or theme instead of unconnected case studies. The cases were interesting and the writer/neuropsychiatrist seemed very caring and competent at his job, but it just lacked a wider context, in my opinion.

I listened to the audiobook and I didn't really like the narrator, who put me off the writer at first. I think the writer said at one point that he has a Scottish accent, and the narrator was a very posh-sounding English guy, which at times seemed to be at odds with the writer's tone.
