Scientific, humanistic, not the conventional wisdom. This podcast, hosted by Dr. Nassir Ghaemi, explains psychiatry in an independent manner. It is medical - it takes disease and biology seriously; and it is humanistic - it takes persons, and human experiences seriously. It is not the status quo. The podcast can be supplemented by subscribing to The Psychiatry Letter website (www.psychiatryletter.com), which has extensive educational materials.
