Para un tema tan complejo como la schizophrenia, el autor logra su cometido de atraparte desde las primeras páginas. Sin duda alguna, tiene un don para enseñarte a ver su mundo y su largo recorrido profesional sobre este tema. Es una lectura fascinante sobre todo porque se trata de un tema muy estigmatizado por nuestra sociedad. Las palabras de Lieberman siguen siendo importantes y necesarias para luchar por una mejor salud mental asequible y accesible para todas las personas.

Absolutely enjoyed this comprehensive description of schizophrenia spectrum disorder. Very thorough history through current updated research.

The high volume of pages was a bit daunting at first. However, as I settled in for my first reading session, I quickly became re-acquainted with the distantly familiar writing style typical of professional medical literature. Dr. Lieberman presents a thorough medical history of schizophrenia packed with facts, research, and information on the neurobiological underpinnings of the condition.
The book offers comprehensive knowledge of the medical world's approach to understanding, researching, and treating this condition. Dr. Lieberman ends the book by sharing his own views on improving treatment approaches with an emphasis on community-based, effective treatment programming.
The only complaint I had about the book was its minimal use of clinical examples and/or case studies. I would have appreciated hearing more about Dr. Lieberman's direct clinical experience with his patients. Unfortunately, that was not the scope of this particular text.
Overall, I enjoyed this medical history and recommend it to anyone seeking to understand schizophrenia a bit/lot more.

Thank you Scribner and Netgalley for the egalley!
