The book includes a comprehensive history of Psychiatry since antiquity and until today, with an emphasis not only on main events but also specifically and with much detail and explanations, on the chain of events that led to a particular development. At the center of this work is the question "what is mental illness?" and "does free will exist?" These are questions which tantalize Psychiatrists, neuroscientists, psychologists, philosophers, patients and their families and the sensitive and educated lay persons alike. Thus, the book includes a comprehensive review and systematic elaboration on the definition and the concept of mental illness, a detailed discussion on the issue of free will as well as the state of the art of contemporary Psychiatry and the socio-political currents it has provoked. Finally the book includes a description of the academic, social and professional status of Psychiatry and Psychiatrists and a view of future needs and possible developments. A last moment addition was the chapter on conspiracy theories, as a consequence of the experience with the social media and the public response to the COVID-19 outbreak which coincided with the final stage of the preparation of the book. Their study is an excellent opportunity to dig deep into the relation among human psychology, mental health, the society and politics and to swim in intellectually dangerous waters 001442974 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed December 8, 2021). 001442974 650_0 $$aPsychiatry. 001442974 650_0 $$aPsychiatry$$xHistory. 001442974 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001442974 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001442974 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030865401$$z9783030865405$$w(OCoLC)1263341994 001442974 852__ $$bebk 001442974 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-86541-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001442974 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1442974$$pGLOBAL_SET 001442974 980__ $$aBIB 001442974 980__ $$aEBOOK 001442974 982__ $$aEbook 001442974 983__ $$aOnline 001442974 994__ $$a92$$bISE
