“Plato Not Prozac!” is a self -help book not a philosophy book as the critic says in the link bellow. But I read it like you, as a self-help book to learn more about my mind. Society is learning from individual or what is good for the individual is good for society. Especially, when you and me find help from this kind of a book. I think this book helps society value the self, self -help and Western philosophy. There is definitely a lot of potential to take a step towards a solution.

“The Last Word”,”How freely we live depends both on our political system and our vigilance in defending its liberties. How long we live depends both on our genes and on the quality of our health care. How well we live— that is how thoughtfully, how nobly,how virtuously, how joyfully, apply it to all else. The examined life is a better life, and it’s within your reach. Try Plato not Prozac!”—from page 23, by Lou Marinoff, PH.D.
