This book is the result of extensive archival research conducted on
the Collection "Silvano Arieti Papers" held in the Manuscript
Division of the Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. It offers
readers the first scientific biography of the renowned Italian-born
psychiatrist Silvano Arieti, who in 1939 emigrated to the United
States, where he gained fame and recognition for his work on
schizophrenia. In 1975, the second edition of his book,
Interpretation of Schizophrenia, received the National Book Award
in Science. The book has been cast as a twofold journey: an
exploration of the life of a psychiatrist and scientist and an
overview of twentieth century psychiatry and its significant
issues, debates, and transformations. Readers will find useful
insights for a better understanding of psychiatry as a discipline
capable of portraying the complexity of human nature.
