About the book >.>.> It would be advantageous if one could offer the reader an uncomplicated description of psychiatry. This would encompass a description of its subject matter (mental illness), methods and goals (diagnosis, treatment, research, and prevention). The ideal of such a presentation, however, appears unrealistic for two main reasons. First, the descriptions and causes of aberrations of human behaviour, which constitute the subject matter of psychiatry, are themselves extremely complicated and therefore require cautious hypotheses and statements rather than pretentious assertions. Second, many of the working hypotheses, methods, and goals of psychiatry are presently under attack, and these criticisms require an answer. The charges against psychiatry include the following: that mental illnesses are merely socially deviant behaviours rather than real illnesses; that medicine has traditionally been disinterested in mental illnesses until about two hundred years ago when it became apparent that profit was to be had in taking char.
