Madness of
Psychiatry is a book for the general reader, which will interest
psychiatrists and students. It is written by a psychiatrist with
extensive academic, administrative, and clinical experience. It is
illustrated with case studies and photographs. It describes the
symptoms and syndromes of the severe mental disorders. It explains
aspects of mental illness in court, and compulsory admission to
hospital. It salutes electroconvulsive therapy and tentatively
welcomes transcranial magnetic therapy. It grapples with
deinstitutionalization, genius and suicide, and turns a critical
eye on post trauma debriefing and recovered memory. These are the
views of the author. These are not necessarily the views of the
German Journal of Psychiatry.
