Description
Evolutionary Psychiatry A New Beginning offers a fresh perspective on understanding mental health. Anthony Stevens and John Price challenge traditional medical models by proposing a new framework based on Darwinian theory.
The authors argue that psychiatric symptoms are manifestations of ancient adaptive strategies, which can be better understood in an evolutionary and developmental context. This comprehensive introduction provides solutions to complex puzzles such as sadomasochism and the function of dreams, while also shedding light on affective disorders, borderline states, and schizophrenia.
