Negative Positive
Title: Flawed Philosophical Rhetoric
Review: As a behavioural neuroscientist I was appalled by the extreme and unscientific rhetoric expressed by this individual. The fear-mongering nature of this read provides an extremely biased point-of-view by throwing psychiatric techniques at the reader that are either out-of-date or have been changed to better the patient(s) involved. A mental state is a DIRECT result of a particular brain state, and therefore, a disturbed continual mental state creating dysfunction in the individual must be a result of altered neurochemicals and must be corrected through proper medications. If the author knew anything of neuroscience and psychiatry he would understand that medications AND psychotherapy are the best combination, and not one alone.
