Amazon's Description:

This award winning book aims to open up the debate on mental disorders, to get people interested and talking, and to get them thinking.

For example, what is schizophrenia? Why is it so common? Why does it affect human beings but not other animals? What might this tell us about our mind and body, language and creativity, music and religion? What are the boundaries between mental disorder and 'normality'? Is there a relationship between mental disorder and genius?

These are some of the difficult but important questions that this book confronts, with the overarching aim of exploring what mental disorders can teach us about human nature and the human condition.

eBook is free at time of posting. Please check price before buying.

    Madness? This is Sparta!

  • Does it talk about neurodiversity I wonder, because it's hard to separate the social idea of "mad" from it.

  • Not free anymore :S
