Abstract
This chapter provides a summary of the topics discussed in this book and offers solutions on how to curb the overdiagnosis of depression and the over-prescribing of antidepressants in self-limiting, non-severe depression. It also makes suggestion as to how medical research, education, and practice can be freed from corporate bias, thus putting public health and patient safety over the commercial interests of the pharmaceutical industry.
