Drawing on vast clinical experience and original research, Dr. Beardslee shows for the first time how the principles of prevention can be effectively applied to families in which a parent is depressed. He offers specific, practical guidelines for parents, caretakers and children as he outlines a step-by-step approach that will enable families to escape the reality of depression's effects on their lives and, from there, to nurture the resilience and bonds that will make them strong.
