Cracking the Mind-Body Cipher
Dr. Niall (Jock) McLaren is an Australian psychiatrist who uses philosophical analysis to show that modern psychiatry has no scientific basis. This startling conclusion dovetails neatly with the growing evidence that psychiatric drug treatment is crude and damaging. Needless to say, this message is not popular with mainstream psychiatrists.

Si la melancolía corre el peligro de perder el estatuto que ha tenido durante tantos siglos, en una época atravesada por el capitalismo, en una época de individuos aparentemente libres y solos, en una época de sobreabundancia de objetos, en una época en que la tristeza es un pecado (pero no lo es tanto estar apático y vacío); en este caso, es el momento más adecuado para hablar de la melancolía, y cuanto más, mejor. El melancólico contemporáneo,...

Does psychiatry have a future? Assailed from many directions, under constant attack for its reliance on "a drug for all problems" and increasingly unable to attract bright new trainees, the specialty is showing every sign of terminal decline. The reason is simple: modern psychiatry has no formal model of mental disorder to guide its daily practice, teaching and research. Unfortunately, the orthodox psychiatrists who control this most conservative...
