Learn about a pioneering alternative to antipsychotic medication for schizophrenia! In Schizophrenia: Innovations in Diagnosis and Treatment, Dr. Colin A. Rossfounder of the Colin A. Ross Institute for Psychological Traumapresents a new theory of the existence of a dissociative subtype of schizophrenia. Dr. Ross determines that some patients diagnosed with schizophrenia have symptoms closely related to dissociative identity disorderor multiple personality disorderand have a history of psychological trauma. In these cases, this unprecedented book proposes that the disorder is treatableperhaps even curableusing psychotherapy rather than drugs. Schizophrenia: Innovations in Diagnosis and Treatment will revolutionize the profession of psychology with data, arguments, and a review of previously published literature to support Dr. Ross's theory. Traditionally, schizophrenia is considered manageable only by a lifetime of psychotropic drugsexpensive, harmful, and often ineffectual. This book offers an alternative free of damaging chemicals to improve quality of life for patients with schizophrenia whose symptoms may be trauma-based. Schizophrenia: Innovations in Diagnosis and Treatment offers specific, detailed ideas and research on: genetic studies showing that while there is a genetic connection, it is not prevalent enough for biology to be the only predisposing factor in all cases of schizophrenia a comparison of the definitions of psychosis, schizophrenia, and dissociationfrom the DSM-IV-TR and other textsto determine relationships between the three disorders proposed diagnostic criteria for dissociative schizophreniadissociative amnesia, depersonalization, the presence of two or more distinct personalities/identities, auditory hallucinations, extensive comorbidity, and severe childhood trauma the principles of psychotherapy for dissociative schizophreniawhen to start therapy, trauma therapy, how to establish communication with the patient, and therapeutic neutrality and more! With an extensive bibliography of literatures on trauma, dissociation, and psychosis, as well as numerous tables and case studies, this volume presents a strong case for a fresh methodology in the treatment of this psychological abnormality. The theory provided by Dr. Ross brings hope for recovery to individuals with dissociative schizophrenia. This one-of-a-kind book is a must-read for psychiatrists, psychologists, and other professionals involved in research and/or treatment of schizophrenia. Its comprehensible text makes it useful for patients with schizophrenia and their family members as well.

Die vorliegende Arbeit behandelt ein eng begrenztes Gebiet deutscher Eisenindustrie, unbedeutend was raumliche Ausdehnung und Produktion anbetrifft, allein wichtig durch die Neuartigkeit seiner Produktionsbedingungen, die von denen aller anderen Bezirke deutscher Eisenindustrie abweichen. Mitbestimmend fiir die Be arbeitung dieses Gebietes war der Umstand, daG sich die ausgedehnte wirtschaftlich- technische Publizistik bisher noch nicht mit ihm be faGt hat. Das gleiche Moment war maGgebend bei Bestimmung von Art und Umfang der Arbeit. Um von anderer Seite bereits Aus gefiihrtes nicht nochmaIs, wenn auch in neuer Form zu bringen, wurde sowohl von der, im iibrigen so verlockenden, ausfiihrlicheren Behandlung der Entwicklung der deutschen Eisenindustrie im all gemeinen abgesehen, als auch eine eingehende technische Beschreibung der einzelnen Werke vermieden. Andrerseits beschrankt sich die Arbeit keineswegs auf die Darlegung bestehender Verhaltnisse, sondem sucht prinzipiell die Entwicklungsmoglichkeiten einer deutschen Eisen industrie an den Kiistell klarzulegen. Ullter diesen Umstanden ist Widerspruch von der einen oder anderen Seite wahrscheinlich, den der Verfasser seIber begriillen wiirde, da er nur zu einer Klarullg der Frage fiihren kann.

In recent years the subject of satanic ritual abuse (SRA) has incited widespread controversy focused primarily on whether or not such abuse actually occurs. Much like child sexual abuse, SRA was initially dismissed as an isolated or even imaginary phenomenon. Although there is increasing evidence that ritual abuse does take place, clinicians working with individual patients cannot be sure whether they are dealing with fact or fantasy. Dr Colin Ross, an expert in the treatment of dissociative disorders, has encountered more than three hundred patients with memories of alleged satanic ritual abuse. In this book, he provides a well-documented discussion of the psychological, social, and historical aspects of SRA and presents principles and techniques for its clinical treatment.

Although Dr Ross has found no evidence of a widespread Satanic network he is open to the possibility that a certain percentage of his patients' memories may be entirely or partially historically accurate. In treatment, he recommends that the therapist adopt an attitude hovering between disbelief and credulous entrapment.

Dr Ross has encountered memories of SRA primarily among people who suffer from multiple personality disorders, and the principles of treatment he outlines here focus on such individuals. Treatment is described in terms of both general principles and specific techniques, with case examples. Ross's recommendation that the same interventions be used regardless of the percentage of memories that are historically accurate bridges the gap between those who adopt a believer' stance and those who take a false-memory stance.

This is the most detailed and comprehensive account of SRA from a clinical perspective available to date. As reports of SRA continue to escalate, it will be a valuable resource for all practicing therapists and psychiatrists.
