After presenting a biological perspective that goes beyond the usual links between depression and suicide, the book ends with evidence-based, hopeful recommendations for building personal, community, and societal resiliency for suicide prevention.' Jeffrey B. Rosen, University of Delaware 'This is an indispensable guide to what we know and - as important - what we don't know and need to learn about suicidality from multiple disciplinary perspectives.' Jonathan D. Moreno, University of Pennsylvania 'A thoughtful and encompassing survey of an emotionally difficult subject. Drs. Stacy and Schulkin weave together history, biology, demography, and psychology to elucidate the underlying causes of suicide across cultures. They end embracing resilience and hope, with actionable steps for addressing this health crisis.' Michael L.
