It must be difficult to review a book like this. Anti psychiatry is based on ‘truth’ at times but mostly on half truths, misinterpretations and observations that are skewed or biased. Psychiatry is inexact by nature and hence exposes itself to such treatment and is an easy target. There seems to be a need and demand to cater to a prejudiced, uninformed audience and that is fulfilled.
