This book comprehensively addresses all aspects of applying the new epistemology of psychiatry to the history, structure, and discourse of current psychiatry. It presents this discourse as a hybrid discipline consisting of both human and the natural sciences and provides the normative rules whereby “abnormality” and “deviancy” are determined.  

This book offers a multidimensional exploration of the epistemological foundations of psychiatry, disorders related to the body, memory, and self-awareness, as well as a comprehensive understanding of psychotic disorders. The first two sections of the book delve into the epistemology of psychiatry, examining the ways in which psychiatric knowledge is constructed and the unique challenges posed by understanding mental symptoms. The third section provides an in-depth examination of psychotic disorders. It covers a range of conditions such as schizophrenia, delusional disorders, and psychotic depression. The fourth section explores connections between these aspects and mental health, shedding light on how disruptions in bodily experiences, memory processes, and self-perception can contribute to the development and manifestation of psychiatric disorders

As a singular work dedicated to presenting the objects of psychiatry hybrid in nature, this groundbreaking book clears the foggy statistical clusters of mental symptoms that may obscure diagnosis and treatment. It features an authorship of the leading clinicians and thinkers from throughout the world in psychiatry, psychology, neuroscience, and other sciences, including the social sciences.
