In this unique study, Tom Biller provides both a Christian perspective on the use of medication and up-to-date scientific information about psychotropic medication that will help Christians accept medications as appropriate treatment for mental illness. Society has often operated with a division between 'real' physical illnesses and mental illnesses, but this book explains that such a division is artificial. This book reveals that the physiological principles that allow successful treatment of asthma, diabetes, hypertension, and other medical conditions also work to treat psychiatric conditions. In addition to the clear explanation of how medications work, Biller provides extensive guidelines on the value and limitation of specific medications.The book is a resource for Christian counselors, pastoral counselors, and secular counselors who work with Christian patients in a clinical setting. Additionally, any person with an interest in mental health treatment who would like to have an introductory book providing information about psychotropic medication could benefit from this book. Owen (Tom) A. Biller (EdD, PhD, FICPPM/FACAPP/FSICPP) is Associate Professor of Counseling at the Pentecostal Theological Seminary, Cleveland, TN USA. He is a Clinical and Counseling Health Service Provider, Psychologist, Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Board Certified Master Diplomate-Fellow in Psychopharmacology of the Prescribing Psychologists' Register, Fellow American College of Advanced Practice Psychologists, and Diplomate-Fellow in Forensic Psychology by the International College of Professional Psychology.
