Diagnosis And The DSM: A Critical Review (Palgrave Pivot) Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
This book critically evaluates the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Through analysis of the history of psychiatric diagnosis and of the handbook itself, it argues that the DSM-5 has a narrow biomedical approach to mental disorders, and proposes a new contextualizing model of mental health symptoms.

An extremely timely and incisive review! Dr. Van Heule hits the nail on the head with his pithy, cogent and spot-on critique of the DSM-5, the likes of which you will not find coming from American organized Psychiatry, brainwashed as it is by the pseudo-science of the Big Pharma perspective. If you are looking for a truthful evaluation of the science behind the DSM, look no further--this is a must-read!
Looks underneath the scientific carpet used to cover the real underlying interests of positivistic scientistic attempts to medicalize psychology for social control.
