This startling conclusion dovetails neatly with the growing evidence that psychiatric drug treatment is crude and damaging. Needless to say, this message is not popular with mainstream psychiatrists. However, in this book, he shows how the principles of information processing give a formal theory of mind that generates a model of mental disorder as a psychological phenomenon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book shows...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e How, for ideological reasons, modern philosophy misses the point of the duality of mind and body;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e How to resolve the mind-body problem using well-defined principles;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Why the entire DSM project is doomed to fail;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Why the ideas of Thomas Szasz have failed to influence psychiatry;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Where we go from here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The Mind Body Problem Explained is a thoughtful, insightful and provocative exploration of the nature of the human mind, and sets forth a powerful argument for rethinking the medical model of mental disorders.
