Our Most Troubling Madness by Tm Luhrmann

Schizophrenia has long puzzled researchers in the fields of psychiatric medicine and anthropology. Why is it that the rates of developing schizophrenia are low in some countries and higher in others? The authors argue that the root causes of schizophrenia are not only biological, but also sociocultural.
T. M. Luhrmann is Professor of Anthropology at Stanford University. She is the author of When God Talks Back, Of Two Minds, and Persuasions of the Witch's Craft. Jocelyn Marrow is a cultural anthropologist and Senior Study Director at Westat in Rockville, Maryland.
