How to Become a Schizophrenic is a thoroughly researched and timely refutation of the increasingly ascendent medical model of schizophrenia by a recovered schizophrenic who combines thoughtful arguments with a vividly written account of his own personal case history. “The universal acceptance of the medical model (or disease hypothesis) stems from the fact that it serves the needs of so many people including psychiatrists, the parents of schizophrenics, and society in general… Obviously, the medical model benefits everyone except the persons whom it is ostensibly designed to help: the schizophrenics.” SS
