Excellent

An easy to read, no nonsense book about Panic Disorder. Written in clear laymans' terms, double spaced text and short chapters, this book moves along quickly and is filled with information that is easily absorbed. With good advice and a keen understanding of Panic Disorder, the author writes about treating real people and shares their experiences. The treatment advice and coping mechanisms are right on. One of the best I've read on the subject.

Best Book I've Ever Read on This Subject

I feel like I've spent my whole life in search of a book like this. It is by far the best book on panic disorder I have ever read. Reading this book felt like coming home. I have read many, many books on the subject of panic disorder, but this was the ONLY book I ever truly got anything out of. Definitely Five Plus Stars.

Great Insight on many Neglected Issues

Dr. Shipko's book not only provides a great overview of panic disorder, but also addresses topics that are often neglected on the subject. Psychological, psychiatric and medical aspects of this frequently misunderstood condition are clearly addressed. Even as an educated patient, I found myself learning new things beyond the DSM-IV manual. Topics include necessary medical tests, GERD and IBS issues, medication and psychotherapy issues, as well as heredity, pregnancy, birth, children, relationship and marriage issues. I believe that anyone with panic disorder could greatly benefit from this insightful book.
