I have so much to say about this book. Basically, this text was written from a medical perspective, but loosened by its religous diffusion. After reading, one can get a really good sense of the fundamentals of psychiatry; which is often a very difficult social science.
One of the most important ideas I learned from this text, and this text only, is the concept of resistance to overlapping academic fields, for it creates problems in the scholastic field, considering its potentially over-diffuse nature. The old ideas behind bipolarism is discovered in this text too, which was first thought to be a cultural disease. The precursor to PTSD is also explained in detail by explaining the physiological pathway disturbances when faced with extreme, emotional and psychological shock.
I cannot say enough about this text. It us truly one of the best books I have ever read.
