OMG, I love this book, though I'm just not a 5 star kinda person. It helps me get the essential info with clear and basically pleasing/non obtrusive design -- sort of Dummies guide with color. I am particularly pleased that he includes tapering schedules in weaning off meds and what to expect. Seems like a good book for boards, too. He is sort of wordy but it's forgivable because it's very useful and thorough info that we need to know, managing patients on these meds.
Viva Stephen Stahl!
