[ 4.0 stars ] "With the DSM-5 due to be released, this book is, of course, not current. But the concepts, sadly, are still true: that the DSM is not based on sound science, but rather the politics of psychiatry, big pharma money and influence, and subjective decisions. Very interesting tales of the whimsical way decisions got made on past DSM committees. Confirmation that there has been a lot wrong with the DS ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 4.0 stars ] "Caplan spends a lot of time developing an ideology around what American society views as normal and what it doesn't, and how we come up with those categories, as well as the consequences for those who don't happen to fit into the "normal" category.
