For individuals struck with the disorder, schizophrenia is a life-shattering event which curtails careers, breaks up families, forfends any possibility of financial stability, leads to severe physiological, psychological and social impairments, and, in many cases (up to 15% of schizophrenics according to some studies) to death through suicide. Schizophrenias impact reaches beyond just schizophrenics and their immediate families. This book is for the families and the constant search for meaning in the madness.
