To the problem of schizophrenia

Abstract

This book is a collection of papers from the Moscow City Neuropsychiatric Institute. The centerpiece of the collection is Brukhansky's article: "Toward a Theory of Schizophrenia," in which the author tries to substantiate his understanding of Bleuler-Krechmer schizophrenia as "developmental schizophrenia," in contrast to the heterogeneous organic processes, as an independent form of illness, with "bodily perceptible" symptomatology.
