The Myth of Mental Illness : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Myth of Mental Illness
''The Myth of Mental Illness: Foundations of a Theory of Personal Conduct'' is a 1961 book by Thomas Szasz, who questions psychiatry's foundations and argues against the tendency of psychiatrists to label people who are "disabled by living" as mentally ill. It received much publicity when it was published, and has become a classic, but also made Szasz an enemy of many doctors. ==Background== Szasz writes that he became interested in writing ''The Myth of Mental Illness'' in approximately 1950, when, having become established as a psychiatrist, he became convinced that the concept of mental illness was vague and unsatisfactory. He began work on the book in 1954, when he was relieved of the burdens of a full-time psychiatric practice by being called to active duty in the navy. Later in the 1950s, it was rejected by the first publisher to whom Szasz submitted the manuscript. Szasz next sent the manuscript to Paul Hoeber, director of the medical division of Harper & Brothers, who arranged for it to be published.
