Sparhawk is an experienced clinician who for the last 12 years has worked with mood disorders in general and bipolar disorder specifically. He expressed initially that his ambition is nothing less than to help improve mood stabilization for the millions of Americans who have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. He points out that the book should be seen as a textbook test tube baby containing an overview of existing research in a language most people will understand.
The six main sections are divided into 20 chapters, followed by the final chapters glossary, appendix with an overview of the diagnostic criteria in DSM-IV-TR and references. The author sticks to an informal language and he uses quotes and patient testimonials to support what he wants out. Moreover, he uses some tables as visual reinforcement of sections and patient care. The references to the latest research are many.
Calm Seas provides a description of the issues associated with bipolar disorder and treatment. The author's main concern is to point out the importance that patients and clinicians understand that bipolar disorder should be viewed in a longitudinal perspective and not be treated test tube baby only with a view to abolish the current phase, mania or depression. He is wary of under-reporting of mixed symptoms and notes that U.S. doctors know a lot more about using antidepressants than mood stabilizer. The author considers test tube baby the use of antidepressants over time as one of the reasons why so many patients do not achieve optimal stabilization. Furthermore, he argues for directing attention test tube baby to swings between manic and depressive phases ("cycling") and activation rather than the patient often one-sided description of depressive symptoms. Doing this and changing the treatment strategy, he believes that most patients will be able to achieve great stability.
Although the book is relatively easy to read, I believe, however, that many will see it as something difficult to visualize. For Norwegian patients are references to what American doctors do, is perceived as irrelevant. When one is known in the field of mood disorders, the book is a healthy supplement with good input in the ongoing debate about the proper use of medications in bipolar disorder.
