The book offers a comprehensive historical critique of the biopsychosocial (BPS) model, which has dominated mainstream psychiatry. It explores the development and implications of this ideology, questioning its validity and effectiveness in understanding mental health. By examining the interplay between biological, psychological, and social factors, the author challenges conventional perspectives and invites readers to reconsider the foundations of psychiatric practice. This critical analysis aims to provoke thought and discussion about the future of mental health treatment.
