Psychiatry and psychology have constructed a mental health system that does no justice to the problems it claims to understand and creates multiple problems for its users. Yet the myth of biologically-based mental illness defines our present. The book rethinks madness and distress reclaiming them as human, not medical, experiences.

From one of America's most celebrated psychiatrists, the book that has taught generations of healers why healing the sick is about more than just diagnosing their illness. Modern medicine treats sick patients like broken machines -- figure out what is physically wrong, fix it, and send the patient on their way. But humans are not machines. When we are ill, we experience our illness: we become scared, distressed, tired, weary. Our illnesses are not just biological conditions, but human ones. It was Arthur Kleinman, a Harvard psychiatrist and anthropologist, who saw this truth when most of his fellow doctors did not. Based on decades of clinical experience studying and treating chronic illness, The Illness Narratives makes a case for interpreting the illness experience of patients as a core feature of doctoring. Before Being Mortal, there was The Illness Narratives. It remains today a prescient and passionate case for bridging the gap between patient and practitioner.

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. .

This is an interdisciplinary work on the somewhat culturally-tabooed topic of death—psychological, psychiatric, historical, developmental, biogenetic, biomedical, and theological—its nature, consequences, and implications as explored and conceptualized by current living Americans. Included also among its hypothesized and associated concepts is the doctrine of an afterlife, as well as various attitudes and reactions to death as the perceived chief limiting factor of the human condition (denial, avoidance, anger, etc.). Unlike its handling by other books on death, the close relationship of death as a terminating phenomenon of life is thoroughly explored in the context of such central concepts of Christian moral theology as salvation, justification, free will, justice, love, anger, sin, expiation, forgiveness, retribution, etc. This book is undoubtedly discriminably different from other serious works of non-fiction if only because it deals with the culturally-tabooed topic of death. Nevertheless, many individuals in all cultures are at least privately or secretly interested in this topic because of the mystery surrounding it, but usually more so, because it inevitably involves themselves in the loss of their own identities in their own culture, and also, very relevantly, stimulates much speculation about their own fate in the hereafter. All of the controversial issues in this book are examined both for and against the Christian theistic view by presenting material by a Christian non-believer as well as by a Christian believer.

I have worked as a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst for nearly fifty years, and I have consulted on and treated hundreds of patients.I have never met an alien--someone who was beyond the boundaries of human understanding. Every person is unique, every case offers mysteries and surprises, but the common thread reflecting the human condition has always been visible. Some presentations at first appear extreme or even bizarre, but the underlying conflicts and the haunting demons my patients bring, I know "in my bones," because they reflect shared human conundrums. Unfortunately, for some, these challenges lead to emotional dysfunction, great pain, and suffering. The well-known American psychiatrist, Harry Stack Sullivan, worked with very ill psychotic patients for many years and emerged from the experience observing, "Man is more human than otherwise." Stated less elegantly and paraphrasing the comic Pogo, "We have met them (our patients) and they are us."[N.B. Pogo quote is "We have met the enemy and he is us." from the Gospel According to Pogo.] If we look deeply into another person's eyes we see ourselves. Sometimes that which we see leads to a sense of kinship. At other times, the reflection can be frightening, promote interpersonal detachment and self-alienation. Introspection, immersion, sensitivity, and a bit of courage will help the reader recognize himself in the clinical material to be presented. Such recognition may be enlightening. To shed light on the human condition and to underscore how we all share this condition of being human, I will tell you the stories of nine patients (carefully disguised for confidentiality) whom I have treated in intensive insight-oriented psychotherapy. Their stories are dramatic and valuable. Of course, I can only relate fragments of their narratives, but I will tell you about the most vivid moments and hours I spent with these people, and the times that were most alive and real for me. Though their past histories and surrounding life events helped me understand the moments we shared, such background was once removed from my immediate experience. It was my contact with these people that was intense, rewarding, and unforgettable. Reflecting the human condition, these individuals struggled in life--largely with painful inner conflicts and battles with childhood fantasies and traumata. However, the resolutions they came to did not work for them. They were left with emotional pain and patterns that were self-defeating and compromised their potential for living a fuller life. Understanding their dysfunction tells us much about being human and about ourselves. Comparable to a finely synchronized and oiled machine, when the apparatus is not functioning well, we are more aware of how it works. Cases of pneumonia force us to learn more about infectious processes and the mechanics of breathing. Listening carefully to a child's nightmares can tell us much about his unspeakable worries.
