More About Psychiatry
About this book
Originally published in 1951, More About Psychiatry invites readers deeper into the evolving world of psychiatry. Writing with clarity, compassion, and a deep respect for the human mind, Binger demystifies the psychiatric profession for the general reader, offering insights into the emotional and psychological struggles that shaped people's lives at the time.
Drawing on real-world cases and decades of clinical experience, Binger explores the roots of mental illness, the role of the psychiatrist, and the therapeutic relationship between doctor and patient. He addresses common misconceptions, the impact of early life experiences, and the growing importance of mental health in modern society. Today it can be read in its historical context.
This book is a re-issue originally published in 1951. The language used is a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
