Host Karyn Foley's guest is B.I Yerevanian M.D., Health Sciences Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, and author of "The Obsessive and Compulsive Experience".

This book is a wide ranging discussion and analysis of Obsessions and Compulsions written for lay people as well as clinicians. Through vivid clinical descriptions, Dr. Yerevanian brings together the many elements that make up the fabric of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

Tune in to hear Dr. Yerevanian talk about how he draws on many disciplines of human endeavor to understand what afflicts his patience and how he plans treatments based on understanding their human predicament.

Examining OCD not only teaches us about the disorder itself, but about the human mind and the human condition with all its vulnerabilities and strengths.
