Hollywood : Cine Y Psiquiatria (film & Psychiatry) - Dr Albert Sola
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
This work constitutes an exciting critical analysis, not without irony, about the image and the prejudices that, in its hundred years of existence, Hollywood cinema has shown about psychiatry, psychiatrists, the mentally ill and the spectacular treatments applied to them. these. The cinema has presented a distorted reality and has acted negatively on the idea of what a mental patient is, with the consequent harm to them and their families. Some treatments that have improved the quality of life of patients and have made possible their social reintegration have often been stigmatized, distorted or ridiculed. Only its dramatic or tremendous aspects have been valued, and psychiatry has been clothed with an aura of mystery, of fear of the unknown (the human mind) and, at worst, has been considered a worthless medical specialty. Dr. Albert Sola, a great cinephile and one of the most eminent psychiatrists of our days, has written an entertaining and rigorous denunciation book, dotted with a great sense of humour and sharp irony, elements that allow us to achieve adequate mental hygiene and facilitate better communication with the reader. A Spanish language edition in very good condition.
