Reviews

Losing Our Minds contains an exceptional amount of detail regarding the mechanisms and importance of the thyroid gland and points towards many potential damaging influences on thyroid function. Anybody involved in thyroid research is likely to find much of value in the book. The possibility of an environmental pollutant causing low level cognitive impairment that may be related to reductions in IQ, and increased autism and ADHD prevalence, remains a theoretical possibility. Losing Our Minds, however, does not provide a convincing case that this theoretical possibility is a current reality. --Stuart Derbyshire, PsycCRITIQUES
