Description

Explore a critical examination of 20th-century psychiatry with this academic text from Routledge. The book provides a broad scan of biologically oriented treatments used for psychological disorders, raising important questions regarding the efficacy of somatic treatments for psychological distress. By comparing biological approaches with psychotherapy and placebo, the authors challenge the common preference for biologically based treatments as the primary choice for care. This text is designed for advanced study and professional development. It serves as a valuable resource for graduate and undergraduate courses in various disciplines, including clinical, social, and health psychology. It is also highly relevant for students and professionals in behavioral medicine, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, psychopharmacology, psychiatry, and clinical social work. Readers will find a deep analysis that questions standard medical assumptions and provides a foundation for discussing alternative treatment modalities.
