Concepts of Psychiatry : A Pluralistic Approach to the Mind and Mental Illness, Paperback by Ghaemi, S. Nassir; McHugh, Paul R. (FRW), ISBN 0801886309, ISBN-13 9780801886300, Like New Used, Free shipping in the USPluralism (or perspectivism) treats psychiatry as a discipline for treating the mind that requires different methods for treating different disorders. A Johns Hopkins psychiatrist introduces this paperback reprint of the 2003 edition by writing that Ghaemi (Bipolar Disorder Research Program, Emory U., Atlanta) offers a framework that bridges the conflicting views that the future of the field depends on improved drugs vs. a return to an emphasis on individual psychotherapy. In the new preface, the author explains why a framework is required to apply advances in neurobiology. Historical debates over such issues as whether mental illness is a disease or myth and the application of the scientific method in psychiatry are discussed.
