Recovering Sanity: A Compassionate Approach to Understanding and Treating Pyschosis
Autor Edward M. Podvollen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 oct 2003
Dr. Podvoll counters the conventional thinking that the millions of Americans suffering from psychosis can never fully recover. He offers a bold new approach to treatment that involves home care with a specially trained team of practitioners. Using "basic attendance," a treatment technique inspired by the author's study of Buddhist psychology, healthcare professionals can use the tools of compassion and awareness to help patients recover their underlying sanity. Originally published as The Seduction of Madness, this reissue includes new introductory material and two new appendices.

Recenzii
"A radical reconsideration of the psychotic mind and its never-lost potential for 'islands of clarity' and self-recovering—one which provides us with desperately needed, humane alternatives for understanding and helping the psychotic patient."—Oliver Sacks, M.D., author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, Awakenings, and Uncle Tungsten

"Edward Podvoll is a highly original thinker who possesses the ability to describe inherently complex phenomena in a remarkably lucid fashion.
