Cracked: Why Psychiatry is Doing More Harm Than Good

Cracked: Why Psychiatry is Doing More Harm Than Good
English | 336 pages | ISBN-10: 1605984736 | PDF | 3.42 MB

Why is psychiatry such big business? Why are so many psychiatric drugs prescribed, and why, without solid scientific justification, has the number of mental disorders risen from 106 in 1952, to 374 today? Psychological therapist James Davies illustrates how psychiatry has put riches and medical status above patients' wellbeing.

The charge sheet is damning: negative drug trials routinely buried; antidepressants that work no better than placebos; research regularly manipulated to produce positive results; doctors, seduced by huge pharmaceutical rewards, creating more disorders and prescribing more pills; and ethical, scientific and treatment flaws unscrupulously concealed by mass-marketing. Reminiscent of Ben Goldacre's Bad Science, Cracked takes apart a profession that, in the name of helping others, has actually been helping itself - and explores how psychiatry must change to win trust back.
