Bringing together a number of pioneering thinkers and workers in the field of psychosis, this book provides an interrogation of the 'official theories' surrounding schizophrenia, examining the range of ways in which psychosis can be thought about and worked with. The first part of the book, which deals with the meaning of psychosis approaches the development of psychosis from historical, social, theoretical and emotional perspectives; explains current psychoanalytical ideas of the meaning of psychosis; looks at the ways psychoanalysts have found meaning in the communications of psychotic patients. The more clinically-orientated papers in the second part of the book focus on the treatment of psychosis. These describe ongoing work with people diagnosed as being schizophrenic in therapeutic settings, as well as the effects on staff working with psychotic patients. This is an encouraging and stimulating book for students and professionals in the field of psychosis.
