    The Heartland : finding and losing schizophrenia / Nathan Filer.
    by Filer, Nathan, author.
    London : Faber & Faber Limited, 2019.
    Description: 
    246 pages ; 23 cm
    Contents: 
    The language of madness (and the beginning of our conversation) -- The journalist -- Insight -- Stigma and discrimination -- The soldier -- Diagnosis -- The mother -- Causes -- The community -- Delusions -- Chemical treatment -- The keyholder, the non-keyholders and the voices -- Leaving the heartland.
    Summary: 
    In The Heartland, Nathan Filer, a former mental health nurse, invites us to spend time in the company of some extraordinary people whose lives have been affected by this most strange of human conditions, and to discover their complex, surprising, painful, funny and ultimately relatable stories. Interlacing these first person encounters with a series of meditative essays, he debunks myths, challenges orthodoxy and offers fresh insight into what is traditionally considered to be psychiatry's heartland: the diagnosis and treatment of schizophrenia. Just as The Shock of the Fall did, The Heartland will illuminate our perception and transform lives.
