This book offers an alternative to operational diagnostic manuals
and manuals for structured interviewing as the only sources of
theoretical and clinical knowledge. It provides an exposition of
psychiatric interviewing that is theoretically and clinically well
founded and supplies the reader with a coherent framework for
performance of a thorough psychiatric examination. The goal is not
to come up with yet another interview scheme but to facilitate an
understanding of the basic (but, today, completely neglected)
tenets of psychopathology and phenomenology. This exposition
targets the disorders of subjectivity (consciousness), the
second-person processes involved in converting subjective,
first-person and observable data into a third person,
diagnostically useful, format. In addition, the most pertinent
clinical descriptions concerning the major diagnostic groups are
presented and discussed.
