"Doctoring the Mind: Why psychiatric treatments fail is a 2009 book by Richard Bentall, his thesis is critical of contemporary Western psychiatry. Bentall, a professor of clinical psychology, argues that recent scientific research shows that the medical approach to mental illness is fatally flawed. According to Bentall, it seems there is no \"evidence that psychiatry has made a positive impact on human welfare\" and \"patients are doing no better today than they did a hundred years ago\". The book focuses on psychotic disorders, especially those diagnosed as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder."@en . "17939"^^ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . "Print"@en . . . . . . . .
