However, it was a concept that was both surprisingly problematic and contentious. This book explores schizophrenia's instability, as the concept changed across the 20th century. It moves beyond sensational accounts of kids on LSD and split personalities, to detail schizophrenia's historically problematic definition, diagnosis, and symptom profile. In doing so, Kieran McNally documents the social uses of the concept, its regional variations, and its fluctuating subtypes. And finally, the book explains how, and why, North American psychiatry sought to improve the concept in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), by introducing group sanctioned operational definitions. This book reveals a tradition of critical unease towards the concept of schizophrenia and it reveals that criticism of the concept was consistently voiced by many leading schizophrenia researchers - andnot just by 'anti-psychiatrists'. It becomes clear that at no stage in its history was schizophrenia thought to be beyond improvement. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in the Theory and History of Psychology,$x2946-2460 606 $aPsychology 606 $aSocial sciences$xHistory 606 $aClinical psychology 606 $aCritical psychology 606 $aScience$xHistory 606 $aPsychology, Pathological 606 $aPsychiatry 606 $aHistory of Psychology 606 $aClinical Psychology 606 $aCritical Psychology 606 $aHistory of Science 606 $aPsychopathology 606 $aPsychiatry 615 0$aPsychology. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xHistory. 615 0$aClinical psychology. 615 0$aCritical psychology. 615 0$aScience$xHistory. 615 0$aPsychology, Pathological. 615 0$aPsychiatry. 615 14$aHistory of Psychology. 615 24$aClinical Psychology. 615 24$aCritical Psychology. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aPsychopathology. 615 24$aPsychiatry. 676 $a616.89/8 686 $aPSY007000$aPSY015000$aPSY018000$aPSY022050$2bisacsh 700 $aMcNally$b Kieran$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0770211 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254677503321 996 $aCritical History of Schizophrenia$91571013 997 $aUNINA
