Therapy,' will be debating Tom Wooton, author of The Bipolar Advantage(2005),

The Depression Advantage(2007)and the upcoming Bipolar In Order(2010) and

founder of Bipolar Advantage. The debate topic is entitled, " Pro and con:

Certain emotional states, such as depression, bipolar, and schizophrenia,

traditionally viewed as problems lacking a cure, can be properly viewed-- and

experienced--as assets, instead. "

conditions shift their thinking and behavior so that they can lead extraordinary

lives. He challenges many of the pervasive attitudes about mental conditions and

charts a different course that looks at the positive as well as negative aspects

of mental conditions. He has worked tirelessly to change the paradigm of how we

look at and treat mental conditions.
