Making Minds and Madness: From Hysteria to Depression
Borch-Jacobsen, Mikkel (University of Washington)
Renowned philosopher Mikkel Borch-Jacobsen provocatively argues most mental illnesses are not diseases, but the product of varying expectations shared by therapists and patients. A powerful critique of all the theories, such as psychoanalysis and biomedical psychiatry, that claim to discover facts about the human psyche while, in reality, producing them.
