5.0 out of 5 stars
Unique and important perspective,
This review is from: Medicating Schizophrenia: A History (Hardcover)
Sometimes it takes someone outside the field to view it objectively. Gelman, a thorough and well-informed lawyer, has a perspective on psychiatric history that will take decades for psychiatry to get. Psychiatry once had a "vision" of specific antischizophrenic treatments with trivial side effects. Gelman traces the precise unraveling of that vision, and the waffling reactions of prominent leaders in the field. Like a lawyer placing psychiatrists on trial, Gelman catches them in all their prevarications and inconsistencies, then adds thought provoking reflections of his own.
