Reviews
"All mental health professionals are likely to gain, both clinically and intellectually, from reading this book, and carers, patients, and philosophers will find much to help them engage with the potentially disorienting and frightening reality of psychosis." --Mental Health Today "This book represents a contribution to what might be considered a renaissance of philosophically informed approaches to clinical psychiatry." --Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, "All mental health professionals are likely to gain, both clinically and intellectually, from reading this book, and carers, patients, and philosophers will find much to help them engage with the potentially disorienting and frightening reality of psychosis." --Mental Health Today"This book represents a contribution to what might be considered a renaissance of philosophically informed approaches to clinical psychiatry." --Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, In this marvellous book, Stanghellini reinvigorates and resurrects psychopathology as more than just the listing of symptoms, re-presenting it as the 'science of the meanings of abnormal human phenomena' . . . The book, from the successful and influential OUP series International Perspectives in Philosophy and Psychiatry, is, like the others, a joy to read . . . All mental health professionals are likely to gain, both clinically and intellectually, from reading this book, and carers, patients and philosophers will find much to help them engage with the potentially disorientating and frightening reality of psychosis.

Synopsis
How can we better understand and treat those suffering from schizophrenia and manic-depressive illnesses? This important new book takes us into the world of those suffering from such disorders. Using self descriptions, its emphasis is not on how mental health professionals view sufferers, but on how the patients themselves experience their disorder. Central to the book is the idea that schizophrenic persons live like disembodied spirits or deanimated bodies. As disembodied spirits, they feel like abstract entities which contemplate their own existence and the world from outside. As deanimated bodies, schizophrenic people feel deprived of the possibility of living personal experiences - perceptions, thoughts, emotions - as their own. A new volume in the International Perspectives in Philosophy and Psychiatry series, this book will be of great interest to all those working with sufferers from such disorders - helping them to better understand their mental lives and providing important insights into how best to treat them., How can we better understand and treat those suffering from schizophrenia and manic-depressive illnesses?

    Seller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.

    The first item arrived with some damage to the inside back cover, but the seller responded immediately, assuring me they’d provide a replacement, and even told me I could keep the original. They were upfront about a short delay, and gave a clear estimated ship date, and followed up right on time once it shipped. The replacement arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. I really appreciated their transparency and professionalism. Would definitely buy from them again!
