The book examines various scientific, economic, and cultural forces
that have affected the mental health field's viewpoint—and that
of society in general—regarding the genesis of some behavioral
disorders, and how dysfunctional family dynamics play an often
overlooked role. Millions of Americans have psychological issues or
are affected by those of their family members, ranging from anxiety
and bipolar disorder to mood and personality disorders. The growth
of Big Pharma, combined with an increasing desire of managed care
providers to find simple and "quick fixes," has resulted in an
often myopic focus on biological causes of dysfunctional symptoms.
There is plenty of evidence to indicate that this propensity to
only prescribe pills is often deeply misguided, however. This book
examines the role of dysfunctional family interactions in the
genesis and maintenance of certain behavioral problems. The author
presents a case for regaining a balance in terms of the biological,
psychological, and family-system factors in psychiatric disorders
and suggests a way to accomplish this.
