Depression is a Disease of Civilization: a TEDx Talk

[Lionelgee]

Hello All,

I got this link through another forum that I belong to about Industrial Fatigue Management. Dr. Stephen Ilardi presents the case that despite the rapid change over the past 200 since the Industrial Revolution we still have the genetic make-up of our Hunter Gather ancestors.

The presentation is through TEDx - the presenter runs out of time however there is a link at the end of the talk that provides more details.

I have no commercial association with the content involved.

I just wonder which will be the percentage of people with mental depression that are caused "for chasing their own tail"
The pressure to compete and desire for materialistic goals for sure have something to do with it.
