Schizophrenia is a widely investigated psychiatric condition, and
though there have been claims of gene "associations," decades of
molecular genetic studies have failed to produce confirmed
causative genes. In this book, Joseph focuses on the methodological
shortcomings of schizophrenia genetic research. His findings have
major implications not only on how we understand the causes of
schizophrenia and other psychiatric conditions, but also on how we
understand the causes of human behavior in general. Chapters
explore the differing theoretical concepts of schizophrenia,
molecular genetic research around schizophrenia, family, twin, and
adoption studies, and non-medical prevention and intervention
strategies. Prominent researchers and studies in the field are
discussed and critiqued comprehensively throughout. This book is
essential reading for psychiatrists, psychologists, behavioral
scientists, and anyone interested in the causes of human behavior.
