Entropy of Mind and Negative Entropy: A Cognitive and Complex Approach to Schizophrenia and its Therapy

Author(s) : Tullio Scrimali

Reviews and Endorsements

'In this major volume Scrimali offers an integrative biopsychosocial perspective. He focuses on the biological markers and the clinical psychopathology and psychophysiology of the disorder. He examines the cognitive and behavioural manifestations of the disorder in a clear and understandable manner. The sections on assessment and treatment deserve special attention. The assessment chapter describes the neuropsychological, psychophysiological, and family issues that are the essence of schizophrenia. Writing as a psychiatrist, neuropsychologist, and clinical researcher, Scrimali describes the problems and then describes the treatment. With a goal of helping the patient with schizophrenia toward more effective coping and enhanced function, Scrimali also takes a rehabilitation focus that describes the social, family, and individual work that must be coordinated in the best interest of the patient.'
