According to a major health survey, nearly half of all Americans have been mentally ill at some point in their lives--more than a quarter in the last year. Can this be true? What exactly does it mean, anyway? What's a disorder, and what's just a struggle with real life? This lucid and incisive book cuts through both professional jargon and polemical hot air, to describe the intense political and intellectual struggles over what counts as a "real" disorder, and what goes into the "DSM," the psychiatric bible.

Jung and his psychiatrist colleague, Hans Schmid-Guisan, began a correspondence through which they hoped to codify fundamental individual differences of attention and consciousness.

That theory, the basis of the widely used Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and similar personality... In 1915, C. G.
