This Isn’t Even the One He Plagiarised…

2 stars

Wolpert achieved nothing here except render an amalgam of stats and facts about depression (a good many of these now being outdated). The introduction is the only part which reflects his personal experience with depression / makes this worth reading—everything else can be found online or in a textbook.

2/5 He should have stuck with writing textbooks, ‘Principles of Development’ is a 5/5.
