Description and Table of Contents

Description

'The book will appeal to a variety of readers. The history of the illness, its diagnoses, epidemiology, demography, inheritance and environmental stresses would be of general interest. The anguished voices describing personal accounts of the symptoms would probably appeal more to non-professional readers, perhaps patients and their families...To a Psychiatrist, his description of genetic and environmental research is comprehensive...' - Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry 'His book is comprehensive, compassionate and easy to read.' - New Scientist
