    Book SynopsisPart memoir, part history, part journalistic exposé, Trip is a look at psychedelic drugs, literature, and alienation from one of the twenty-first century''s most innovative novelists--The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test for a new generation. A Vintage Original.While reeling from one of the most creative--but at times self-destructive--outpourings of his life, Tao Lin discovered the strange and exciting work of Terence McKenna. McKenna, the leading advocate of psychedelic drugs since Timothy Leary, became for Lin both an obsession and a revitalizing force. In Trip, Lin''s first book-length work of nonfiction, he charts his recovery from pharmaceutical drugs, his surprising and positive change in worldview, and his four-year engagement with some of the hardest questions: Why do we make art? Is the world made of language? What happens when we die? And is the imagination more real than the universe?In exploring these ideas and detailing his ex

It made us question a good deal of what we ‘know’; personally and professionally, and we have already recommended it to colleagues, friends, and students.” (Jennifer Poole, Zachary Sera Grant & Katherina Yerro, Canadian Journal of Disability Studies, Vol. 5, 2016)“This book is arguably the most comprehensive and brilliant critique of psychiatry that I’ve ever read; it’s a devastating expose of psychiatry’s discredited medical model and institutional psychiatry, ‘a regime of ruling.’ Bonnie Burstow’s book is absolutely awesome in its numerous, thoroughly researched facts and original insights and scholarship frequently voiced with passion.” (Don Weitz, Ethical Human Psychology and Psychiatry, Vol. 17 (1), 2015)"This is a powerfully unsettling book. Burstow expresses outrage about, and level-headed analysis of, the oppressive and alienating practices of psychiatry and holds out hope for emancipation that builds on everyday interactions in a transformed society. It's an outstanding contribution to critical thinking about mental health, and to ethics, law, and social change a no-holds barred, take-no-prisoners radical history and deconstruction of all modern mental health practices and an ambitious, inspiring 'eutopian' proposal for their reinvention." - David Cohen, Professor and Marjorie Crump Chair in Social Welfare, University of California, Los Angeles, USTable of Contents1.

  • Johns Hopkins University Press Systematic Psychiatric Evaluation

    Out of stock

    Book SynopsisTwo Johns Hopkins psychiatrists explain the Perspectives approach to evaluating patients with psychiatric disorders.The Perspectives approach to psychiatry focuses on four aspects of psychiatric practice and research: disease, dimensional, behavior, and lifestory. In Systematic Psychiatric Evaluation, Drs. Margaret S. Chisolm and Constantine G. Lyketsos underscore the benefits of this approach, showing how it improves clinicians'' abilities to evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients.Drs. Chisolm and Lyketsos use increasingly complex case histories to help the mental health provider evaluate patients demonstrating symptoms of bipolar disorder, psychosis, suicidal ideation, depression, eating disorders, and cutting, among other conditions. The book also includes an exercise that simulates the Perspectives approach side by side with traditional methods, revealing the advantages of a method that engages not one but four points of view. Trade ReviewThe best go-to book I have seen for teaching thoughtful evaluation. -- Dinah Miller, MD Clinical Psychiatry News If you are a mental health clinician-or a consumer-and you want to understand psychiatric disorders-buy this book. -- Dr. Steven J. Ceresnie Notes of a Psychology Watcher A well-presented, compact summation of McHugh and Slavney's four perspectives. Faithful and concise, the descriptions are intended to formulate practical, diagram-based steps in the conceptualization of each perspective... From bereavement to cognitive decline, from bipolarity to eating disorders, from personality... to hypochondriasis, from suicidal behavior to psychosis, the cases attempt to combine theoretical cogency with clinical clarity -- Renato D. Alarcon, M.D., M.P.H. American Journal of Psychiatry Innovative in its orientation, this book not only should be used in psychiatric training programs but also would enrich the approach of many practising mental health professionals. -- Paul Grof Canadian Journal of Psychiatry It comes highly recommended as both an educational tool and an argument against the instrumentalization and reductionism prevalent in some approaches to clinical psychiatric practice. -- Kenneth Brandt Hansen Aeta Psychiatrica Scandinavica It would be good if the practical book by Chisolm and Lyketsos is used in education and if the residents (and their teachers) are so enthusiastic about it that they also read the book by McHugh and Slavney themselves. -- M.W. Hengeveld Tijdschrift voor Psychiatrie I believe that this book will be a useful companion to psychiatric residents and other mental health practitioners who struggle to better understand, diagnose, and treat patients with complex psychiatric and medical conditions. -- Radu V.

    Book SynopsisGhaemi shows how the historical role of the BPS model as a reaction to biomedical reductionism is coming to an end and urges colleagues in the field to embrace other, less-eclectic perspectives.Trade ReviewGhaemi's book is highly relevant. It is also very well written and appears meticulously researched, and it should be of interest to everyone with a professional relation to psychiatry. Hereby recommended. -- Anders Jorgensen Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica Provocative... Ghaemi claims that one should leave muddled views behind and recognize that humanism in medicine is compatible with the bio-physiological model. The author offers William Osler's humanism and Karl Jasper's method-based existentialist psychiatry as exemplars. Essential. Choice This is a thoughtful and well-researched book. At minimum, it is an essential read for academic psychiatrists and residents involved in teaching and learning. More broadly, it is a good read for anyone interested in the historical and philosophical aspects of psychiatric theories. -- Hamid R. Tavakoli, MD Psychiatric Times Impassioned and thoughtful... Ghaemi has produced both a penetrating analysis of the ascent of the biopsychosocial model as a psychiatric theory-of-everything and a weapon designed to bring about its decline. -- Nicholas Kontos, M.D. Journal of Clinical Psychiatry A provocative and valuable piece of scholarship. -- Gerald N. Grob Bulletin of the History of Medicine This book is especially suited for those who want to ponder the direction of our field and who worry about the theoretical disorientation of modern psychiatry and our resulting need for deep organizing principles. Ghaemi's grasp is wide. His book will be as much disturbing as satisfying but will provide the reader a sense of where our field has been and where it may need to go. -- Kenneth S. Kendler, M.D. American Journal of Psychiatry It may become an influential, revolutionary book... Stimulating and thought provoking. -- Victor A.

    Book SynopsisIlluminating the contributions of Adolf Meyer, the pioneering father of modern American psychiatry. Winner of the CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title of the Choice ACRLDuring the first half of the twentieth century, Adolf Meyer was the most authoritative and influential psychiatrist in the United States. In 1908, when the Johns Hopkins Hospital established the first American university clinic devoted to psychiatrystill a nascent medical specialty at the timeMeyer was selected to oversee the enterprise. The Henry Phipps Psychiatric Clinic opened in 1913, and Meyer served as psychiatrist-in-chief at Johns Hopkins until 1941. In Pathologist of the Mind, S. D. Lamb explores how Meyer used his powerful position to establish psychiatry as a clinical science that operated like the other specialties at the country's foremost medical school and research hospital. In addition to successfully arguing for a scientific and biological approach to mental illness, Meyer held extraordinary sway over stTrade ReviewFortunately for anyone wishing to learn about Meyer's ideas and their influence, Lamb, a historian, has mined his unpublished papers and correspondence for the truths that became opaque when he turned them into essays. Crucially, she has also read more than 1,800 of the meticulous patient records that Meyer and his staff created at the Phipps Psychiatric Clinic, which reveal him at work as a clinician and teacher. These she presents as the key to understanding how he created an American psychiatry with his ideas at its center. The result is a tutorial in Meyer's psychobiology, and a fascinating look at patients' experiences, their suffering, and treatment in the early 20th century.—PsycCRITIQUESIn this fascinating study, Lamb examines Meyer's efforts to establish psychiatry as a clinical science and subdiscipline of biology . . . This book is a medical historian's dream.—ChoiceFull of interesting information on how Dr. Adolf Meyer, a Swiss neurologist and psychiatrist, set the basis for modern psychiatry in the United States.—Metapsychology[Lamb] aims to give us a more detailed and rounded portrait of Meyer's life and career.—Times Literary SupplementSome books are worth underlining every sentence. Pathologist of the Mind is one of them.—Psychiatric ServicesLamb’s intellectual and professional biography will inevitably stimulate further historical research on Adolf Meyer’s influence on American psychiatry.—IsisPathologist of the Mind clarifies Meyerian notions of psychobiology, psychotherapy, and evolutionary theory (among others) and places this important figure, as well as the hospital and area of specialty to which he was dedicated, into historical context.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisWhy and how do music and abstract art pack such universal appeal? Why do they often have 'therapeutic' efficacy?Between Couch and Piano links well-established psychoanalytic ideas with historical and neurological theory to help us begin to understand some of the reasons behind music's ubiquity and power. Drawing on new psychoanalytic understanding as well as advances in neuroscience, this book sheds light on the role of the arts as stimulus, and as a key to creative awareness. Subjects covered include:* music in relation to the trauma of loss* music in connection with wholeness and the sense of identity* the ability of music to jump-start normal feelings, motion and identity where these have been seemingly destroyed by neurological disease* the theory of therapeutic efficacy of music and art. Between Couch and Piano is a comprehensive overview that will be of interest to all those intrigued by the interrelation of psychoanalysis and the creative arts.www.psychoanalysisarena.comTrade ReviewBetween Couch and Piano is an enjoyable read, both for its insights correlating psychoanalysis and art - especially music, which the author thinks is inherant to all art - and because of its jargon-free clarity. The book is at once a meditation on the power of music and the summary of a life's work in psychoanalysis. - Donald Kuspit, Professor of Art History and Philosophy, State University of New York at Stony BrookThe developmental scope of his inquiry is no less that cradle-to-grave Dr Rose again reveals himself as both humanist and master clinician. - Stuart Feder, The New York Psychoanalytic Institute and Juilliard, New YorkTable of ContentsKramer, Foreword: A Musician Listens to a Psychoanalyst Listening to Music.

    Book SynopsisKazimierz Dabrowski refers to his view of personality development as the theory of positive disintegration. He defines disintegration as disharmony within the individual and in his adaptation to the external environment. Anxiety, psychoneurosis, and psychosis are symptoms of disintegration. In general, disintegration refers to involution, psychopathology, and retrogression to a lower level of psychic functioning. Integration is the opposite: evolution, psychic health, and adequate adaptation, both within the self and to the environment. Dabrowski postulates a developmental instinct—that is, a tendency of man to evolve from lower to higher levels of personality. He regards personality as primarily developing through dissatisfaction with, and fragmentation of, the existing psychic structure—a period of disintegration—and finally a secondary integration at a higher level. Dabrowski feels that no growth takes place without previous disintegration. He regards symptoms of anxiety, psychoneurosis, and even some symptoms of psychosis as the signs of the disintegration stage of this evolution, and therefore not always pathological.
