About this title: A psychiatrist's devastating critique of how the "new psychiatry" is damaging millions of people. "Biopsychiatry", says Dr. Breggin, is the dominant ideology of the medical-pharmaceutical establishment which frequently announces "breakthroughs in brain chemistry" to justify the use of drugs, electroshock, involuntary hospitalization, and other harsh treatments.
