Enthusiastically defending the controversial use of electroconvulsive "therapy" (ECT), Abrams (psychiatry, Chicago Medical School), the director of a firm that manufactures ECT devices, reviews the practice and its literature. He briefly discusses the history of ECT and then outlines current practice and addresses the use of unilateral versus bitemporal ECT. He argues against the studies that find ECT to be a dangerous and unhelpful procedure. A final chapter considers ethical and legal issues, finding that doctors who refuse to subject patients to electroshock are behaving unethically and that malpractice suits are a relatively minor problem.
