When Medicine Got it Wrong

 
 

When Medicine Got it Wrong is the groundbreaking story of loving parents who rocked the halls of psychiatry, changing how we understand schizophrenia. In the 1970s, a small group of parents rebelled against then-popular psychiatric theories blaming schizophrenia on bad parenting.  Their activism helped revolutionize treatment forever and their stories reveal the origins of the tragic state of mental health care today.
