Schizophrenia is one of the most traumatic psychiatric disorders,
both for the affected person and their family. It also carries an
unfortunate stigma and suffers from frequent misinterpretation by
the popular media. The disorder usually manifests itself through
significant periods of hallucinations, bizarre delusions, and
disorganized behaviour, but the individuals who suffer from this
brain disorder are not generally violent, and do have periods of
remission. However it is often difficult for these individuals to
maintain a regular lifestyle and relationships at home and at work,
and many individuals with schizophrenia end up unable to live
independently or, worse, homeless. This new edition in the popular
Facts series provides a concise and up-to-date account of the
underlying causes and symptoms of schizophrenia, as well as current
theories about the disorder. The authors look at all the current
treatment options, both medical and psychological, together with
likely side-effects and the problem of compliance with treatment.
The role of the family and the community in caring for individuals
with schizophrenia is also considered. The authors are experienced
psychiatrists and psychologists with many years' experience in the
treatment and study of schizophrenia. This book will provide a
welcome source of information for individuals with schizophrenia,
their family members, and those involved in caring for them.
