Schizophrenia

By Jane E. Phillips, David P. Ketelsen, Jane E. Philips

Authors Jane Phillips and David Ketelsen trace the history of schizophrenia from the ancient terms and diagnoses to the disorder we recognize today. In simple language, they discuss current research trends and the treatment options that are available today. Attention to controversial issues, such as social stigma and medicating schizophrenia, sheds light on this often misunderstood disorder that affects approximately 1 percent of the population.
