About the time that I wrote this article, it came into my mind that I was really writing a book, chapter by chapter. I have trouble organizing things. Books are really long. They're supposed to have a narrative structure. That's a lot of work. But a conceit? That works too. So, I wrote an entire book about drugs, that started out with this chapter as the first one I understood as something that was going to turn into a chapter in a book.

I'm editing an FDA-approval trial publication day, so you're gonna have to wait until I'm done with that for fresh new content—I know, it's painful, you'll get over it. Or, you could just feel nothing much about it. How could you do that? With Prozac!

The book is called inessential pharmacology, and you can get it on the Amazon Kindle store.
