Psychiatry is one of the most important, yet one of the most misunderstood medical sciences practiced in the world today. In the book From Madness to Mental Health: Psychiatric Disorder and and its Treatment in Western Civilization, author Greg Eghigian explores the contributions that psychiatry, clinical psychology, and psychotherapy have had on modern medical sciences and practices, while examining the ways in which mental illness has typically dictated and challenged the understanding which human beings have had of their own bodies. The human mind is a powerful thing, and has a significant impact on all aspects of our lives. From Madness to Mental Health includes a bibliography of essays organized by Gail A. Hornstein.
