Psychiatrists on Psychiatry

Over the past 70 years or so, psychiatry has come out of the shadows. With it, has come the truly exceptional leaders that have spearheaded the investigations, interventions, medications, and developments in new therapies, that have contributed to this change and helped shape psychiatry as a discipline.

These legendary personalities have helped develop entirely new schools of thought as well as challenge both dogma and stigma that have hounded psychiatry and psychiatrists. They've had a profound impact on policies and have been mentors, supervisors, and role models to new generations of young psychiatrists, creating an environment and the foundations for further developments of the discipline.

Comprising 26 unique interviews, the conversations in this fascinating book tell of numerous personal and professional challenges on multiple fronts, and how these have been overcome. Their stories of achievements, struggles, and leadership are truly exceptional sources of inspiration for generations to come. Capturing the compelling personal experiences and views of some of the great thought leaders in psychiatry, the insights in this book will appeal to future generations of academics, clinicians, health care professionals, as well as anyone with an appetite for a diverse array of life stories.
