50th Anniversary Edition With a New Preface and Two Bonus Essays

Probably the most influential critique of psychiatry ever written, Thomas Szasz’s classic book revolutionized interested by the character of the psychiatric profession and the ethical implications of its practices. By diagnosing unwanted behavior as mental sickness, psychiatrists, Szasz argues, absolve people of responsibility for his or her actions and as an alternative blame their alleged sickness. He also critiques Freudian psychology as a pseudoscience and warns against the harmful overreach of psychiatry into all aspects of up to date life.
