This book brings together different views about living and working
with schizophrenia. The discussions focus on the psychococial
aspects of care, and the book includes personal narratives from a
sufferer and a carer as well as contributions from a Jungian
analyst, occupational therapists and a psychiatric nurse.

Schizophrenia is a highly complex condition, which impacts on
every aspect of an individual's well-being. Today many clinicians
are involved in any individual programme of care and there can be
conflict between professionals about the weighting of the
approaches to the management of an individual's experiences,
together with a divergent understanding of the psycholgoical and
social consquences of these experiences.
