But, as Jeffrey Lieberman reveals in his extraordinary and eye-opening book, the path to legitimacy for 'the black sheep of medicine' has been anything but smooth. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  In SHRINKS, Dr Lieberman traces the field from its birth as a mystic pseudo-science through its adolescence as a cult of 'shrinks' to its late blooming maturity since the Second World War as a science-driven profession that saves lives. With fascinating case studies and portraits of the luminaries of the field, from Sigmund Freud to Eric Kandel, SHRINKS is a gripping and illuminating read. It is also an urgent call-to-arms to dispel the stigma surrounding mental illness and to start treating it as a disease rather than a state of mind.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46348768149662,"sku":"ADS-9781780227016","price":24.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781780227016.jpg?v=1767011710","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781780227016","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
