Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to 'The Mind and the Moon' feels like having a late-night chat with a brilliant, curious friend who happens to be an expert in mental health. Bergner's narration is warm, inquisitive, and refreshingly unclinical, drawing you into his exploration of psychiatry's past and present. The pacing is excellent, balancing dense historical context with compelling personal anecdotes and interviews. However, the audiobook's strength—its depth and breadth—can sometimes feel overwhelming, with so many ideas and stories vying for attention. But this is a small price to pay for such a rich, insightful exploration of our minds and how we treat them.
