Schizophrenia may not be a single disease, but the result of a
diverse set of related conditions. Modern neuroscience is beginning
to reveal some of the genetic and environmental underpinnings of
schizophrenia; however, an approach less well travelled is to
examine the medical disorders that produce symptoms resembling
schizophrenia. This book is the first major attempt to bring
together the diseases that produce what has been termed 'secondary
schizophrenia'. International experts from diverse backgrounds ask
the questions: does this medical disorder, or drug, or condition
cause psychosis? If yes, does it resemble schizophrenia? What
mechanisms form the basis of this relationship? What implications
does this understanding have for aetiology and treatment? The
answers are a feast for clinicians and researchers of psychosis and
schizophrenia. They mark the next step in trying to meet the most
important challenge to modern neuroscience - understanding and
conquering this most mysterious of human diseases.
