About this product
Product Information
This is the first-ever history of catatonia, a singular psychiatric illness featuring often bizarre disorders of mind and movement together with fearfulness and anxiety. Unlike most other psychiatric illnesses, it is eminently treatable, the symptoms vanishing as rapidly as they have come. For many years it was considered incorrectly as a "subtype" of schizophrenia.

Reviews
"I am extremely grateful for the very wise decision of Shorter and Fink to collaborate... I am convinced Shorter and Fink's book will become a classic." -- Jose de Leon, University of Kentucky College of Medicine "Shorter and Fink offer a probing, well-informed, and very readable account of the arcane theorizing and factional struggles by which psychiatrists hashed out a consensus on catatonia, schizophrenia, and other psychic ailments, one thats enriched with dozens of intriguing case studies ... The result is an engrossing portrait of a fearsome and fascinating disease, and a searching inquiry into the ways in which doctors misunderstand the mind." -- Kirkus "One expects to read a history book. But The Madness of Fear is so much more than that. [It] is an impressive piece of work that should be on the shelf of each psychiatrist... Shorter and Fink succeed in braiding the historic bits and pieces together to create a story that reads like a novel. An exciting one!" -- Journal of ECT, "I am extremely grateful for the very wise decision of Shorter and Fink to collaborate...
