Psychiatry has come a long way since the days of chaining "lunatics" in cold cells and parading them as freakish marvels before a gaping public. But, as Jeffrey Lieberman, MD, the former president of the American Psychiatric Association, reveals in his extraordinary and eye-opening audiobook, the path to legitimacy for "the black sheep of medicine" has been anything but smooth.

In 2015, Barbara Lipska - a leading expert on the neuroscience of mental illness - was diagnosed with melanoma that had spread to her brain. Within months, her frontal lobe, the seat of cognition, began shutting down. She descended into madness, exhibiting dementia- and schizophrenia-like symptoms that terrified her family and coworkers. But miraculously, the immunotherapy her doctors had prescribed worked quickly. Just eight weeks after her nightmare began, Lipska returned to normal. With one difference: she remembered her brush with madness with exquisite clarity.

It is the ribosome - an enormous molecular machine made up of a million atoms - that makes DNA come to life, turning our genetic code into proteins and therefore into us. Gene Machine is an insider account of the race for the structure of the ribosome, a fundamental discovery that both advances our knowledge of all life and could lead to the development of better antibiotics against life-threatening diseases.

Why did humans abandon hunting and gathering for sedentary communities dependent on livestock and cereal grains and governed by precursors of today's states? Most people believe that plant and animal domestication allowed humans, finally, to settle down and form agricultural villages, towns, and states, which made possible civilization, law, public order, and a presumably secure way of living. But archaeological and historical evidence challenges this narrative.

Traveling across millennia, weaving the experiences and world views of cultures both extinct and extant, The Invention of Yesterday shows that the engine of history is not so much heroic (battles won), geographic (farmers thrive), or anthropogenic (humans change the planet) as it is narrative. Many thousands of years ago, when we existed only as countless small autonomous bands of hunter-gatherers widely distributed through the wilderness, we began inventing stories - to organize for survival, to find purpose and meaning, to explain the unfathomable.

Dip below the ocean’s surface and you are soon confronted by forms of life that could not seem more foreign to our own: sea sponges, soft corals, and serpulid worms, whose rooted bodies, intricate geometry, and flower-like appendages are more reminiscent of plant life or even architecture than anything recognizably animal. Yet these creatures are our cousins. As fellow members of the animal kingdom — the Metazoa— they can teach us much about the evolutionary origins of not only our bodies, but also our minds.

Prizewinning historian Chris Wickham defies the conventional view of the Dark Ages in European history with a work of remarkable scope and rigorous yet accessible scholarship. Drawing on a wealth of new material and featuring a thoughtful synthesis of historical and archaeological approaches, Wickham argues that these centuries were critical in the formulation of European identity. Far from being a middle period between more significant epochs, this age has much to tell us in its own right about the progress of culture and the development of political thought.

In our unique genomes, every one of us carries the story of our species - births, deaths, disease, war, famine, migration, and a lot of sex. But those stories have always been locked away - until now. Who are our ancestors? Where did they come from? Geneticists have suddenly become historians, and the hard evidence in our DNA has completely upended what we thought we knew about ourselves. Acclaimed science writer Adam Rutherford explains exactly how genomics is completely rewriting the human story - from 100,000 years ago to the present.

Schizophrenics in the United States currently fare worse than patients in the world’s poorest countries. In Mad in America, medical journalist Robert Whitaker argues that modern treatments for the severely mentally ill are just old medicine in new bottles, and that we as a society are deeply deluded about their efficacy. The widespread use of lobotomies in the 1920s and 1930s gave way in the 1950s to electroshock and a wave of new drugs.

But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third.

Publisher's Summary
The story of the unfulfilled quest to find the biological basis of mental illness, and its profound effects on patients, families, and American society.
In the 1980s, American psychiatry announced that it was time to toss aside Freudian ideas of mental disorder because the true path to understanding and treating mental illness lay in brain science, biochemistry, and drugs. This sudden call to revolution, however, was not driven by any scientific breakthroughs. Nor was it as unprecedented as it seemed. Why had previous efforts stalled? Was this latest call really any different?
In Mind Fixers, Anne Harrington offers the first comprehensive history of the troubled search for the biological basis of mental illness. She makes clear that this story is not just about laboratories and clinical trials, but also momentous public policies, acrid professional rivalries, cultural upheavals, grassroots activism, and profit-mongering. Harrington traces a consistent thread of over-promising and frustrated hopes. Above all, she helps us understand why psychiatry’s biological program is in crisis today, and what needs to happen next.

A summary relevant to each of us
18 months ago I chose to quit my job and return to school, at 40, to move from a successful career to therapy. I did this because of personal experience caring for those with life-debilitating and life-threatening mental illness.
In these 18 months I have become increasingly disenfranchised with nearly every aspect of psychology. It seems to be a world filled with those who wish to do good and yet are lost in how to productively express their empathy.
Anne Harrington has, in my humble and undereducated opinion, summarized the steps taken, be they research, social, or political, which have landed the world in this multi-point contemporary Scylla and Charybdis that is mental health care. With straightforward descriptions and well-thought examples this book lays bare a century-and-a-half of tug-of-war practices leading eventually to the landscape of confusion and corruption we all face today.
Read, or listen to, this book. It is of significance to each of us and to those whom we love.

Psychiatry at a cross roads
Dr. Harrington lured me into her book with a very interesting, if understated, interview on NPR.
While giving an amazing history of mental health, psychiatry and pharmaceuticals, Harrington provides the human side of the story without shying away from the unfortunate, dehumanizing and parochial views mental health professionals, namely psychiatrists, held throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. This book documents the dialectical progress of the field as mental health professionals and society searched for new and better answers to mental disorders.
What becomes painfully clear through this book is that the hunt for simple or even logical solutions to mental health problems is a pipe dream. Our understandings of chemical imbalances corrected by medications are almost all fictions dreamed up by marketing firms. It becomes clear that psychiatry needs to reevaluate its current course, just as it has done throughout its history.
As much as this book challenges our views about the field it also throws down the gauntlet over failed reforms of the mental health system in the US initiated by the Kennedy administration, as well as the long term consequences of Lyndon Johnson’s great society program. The destruction of mental hospitals and the failure of the community based approach have lead to burdens on families and the mentally ill roaming the streets homeless. Public policy is a critical component in creating and alleviating the burdens on our most at risk populations.
Harrington also, without directly saying so, does a fantastic job of dealing with the intersectionality of many mental health issues. She does not shy away from racism, sexism, and homophobia reflected in psychiatry’s enforcement of “normal behavior.”
This book is a compelling read, contains fascinating case studies from the key turning points in psychology, and takes a humanistic and compassionate approach. It was easy to follow as a layman and at points I found it simply jaw dropping. I highly recommend it.

Doesn’t Add Much
This book does not add much to a critical discussion of psychiatry, biological psychiatry more specifically, and psychiatry of the last 150 years than a number of other books that have gone before. The book also meanders often from its thesis, and does not do much to support that thesis—functioning more as a historical overview with a good dose of skepticism—namely, that we have failed to treat psychic suffering with much success, if any, via biology, standard medicine, or pharmacology. The book fails to meaningfully engage with the numerous major *successes* of psychiatry and psychopharmacology of the last 70 years, even as the book often describes those successes. The “mind fixers” may have not encyclopedically or exhaustively discovered how the brain works, but they have helped the mental lives of countless many.

muy completo, pero tal vez innecesariamente largo
Me costó un poco no perder la atención. Se sumerge en detalles históricos tal vez innecesarios. Pero en general, el recorrido es claro y completo. Preferiría una versión más corta y eché de menos una reflexión filosófica sobre el tema; la anécdota se queda corta.

Good history, missing pieces
Overall I found Harrington's critique of psychiatry engaging and enlightening, but her work does little to address alternative points of view or evidence gathered by neuroscientists over the past decade. I learned a lot but was frustrated by the sometimes arbitrary reasoning used to reach certain conclusions.
