6. But neuroscience,in the last decade in particular,is moving to a model of looking at parts of the brain that are no longer connected, or they become disconnected during episodes of illness,and this study not only shows that people with melancholia have certain disconnections in the brain that people with non-melancholic depression and normal people don't show,even when depressed,it points at the areas of the brain that are involved and tells us something as to the actual causal process where things go wrong when people are in episode.
