Completely updated and revised, the third edition of this indispensable manual thoroughly details everything patients, families, and mental health professionals need to know about one of the most widespread and misunderstood illnesses.

A mother of a schizophrenic writes: A "Must Have" book from an expect on the subject. I am a mother of a schizophrenic. Reading this book helped our family understand what was going on. We learned what was 'normal' behavior, what we could expect in the future, and how to lessen the stress this illiness created in our lives. I wish it was updated to include the wonderful results that some of the newest medicines can achieve. I need a new copy; I loaned out the other one to a nurse and never got it back!
