Schizophrenia. Find and Lose yourself
Book Description
Schizophrenia. Whether it's abstract associations with this word or the people it suggests, we all, one way or another, have an opinion about this phenomenon. How we perceive it and how we treat people living in its context is the essence of our understanding of mental health. But what do we know about schizophrenia? How much have you read or listened to? Do we really understand this complex and often contradictory diagnosis? In this book, Nathan Filer, a qualified psychological nurse and winner of several literary awards, will guide us through the corridors and offices of psychiatry, both theory and practice. The reader is invited to a meeting with the world's leading experts and some extraordinary people who will tell their stories - genuine, non-fictional - about how they live with this strange and not fully understood disease. The book dispels myths, argues with established opinions and offers a new look at madness - and humanity.
