Este libro es tremendo. Imagínate tener 12 hijos. Imagínate que la mitad tenga esquizofrenia. Imagínate que es en una época en que todavía no se entiende mucho la enfermedad. Esta es una historia real, la de una familia, los Galvin, que aportaron mucho al estudio de la esquizofrenia en Estados Unidos. Es una lectura muy interesante sobre salud mental, sobre las familias, sobre cómo se sobrelleva algo así y sobre lo mucho que nos falta por entender de este tipo de enfermedades.

Audio for first 2/3, empathetically narrated by Sean Pratt. Thoroughly and compassionately reported by Kolker, alternating the sad, gripping story of the Galvin family with the changing landscape and research into mental illness. For upcoming book discussion. Highly recommended.

La storia di una famiglia e la storia del progresso nelle cure psichiatriche. Non c’è sensazionalismo, ricerca spasmodica dello shock, la storia è narrata in modo chiaro e diretto, gli eventi inquietano solo per la loro bruttura intrinseca, intervallati dagli studi scientifici e di ricerca sulle malattie mentali.
Vi interessano i libri di non fiction stile Oliver Sacks? Ecco, questo libro è perfetto
