Kirsch, a researcher and clinical psychologist, for years referred patients to psychiatrists to have their depression treated with drugs before deciding to investigate for himself just how effective the drugs actually were. His research has demonstrated that what everyone knew about antidepressants was wrong. Instead of treating depression with drugs, we've been treating it with suggestion.

From the reviews some seem to find it tedious when he systematically ticks off various experimental designs and questions, but I found it deeply compelling to have a laundry list of "but what if" and "have you tried" and "did you account for" questions pre-empted and answered.
Others seem to have a hard time believing so many people could be in cahoots to perpetuate what is essentially a billion dollar fraud. Yet we've seen in recent years revelations of how Big Pharma happily intentionally addicted millions to opiates they did not need and gleefully joked about the consequences, as the billions in profits kept raking in. If they're willing to kill to make a buck, knowingly hawking ineffective drugs is saintlike in comparison.
