Description - Historical and Geographical Influences on Psychopathology by Patricia Cohen
Resulting from a meeting for Life History Research in Psychopathology, this volume assumes that a deep understanding of the origins of psychopathology, human dysfunction, and their course is fundamental to the quest for the good society, and perhaps, even to our survival as a species. The studies presented attempt to show that comparing prevalences and risk factors across time and place makes use of concepts and methods from history, geography, sociology, anthropology, economics, psychology, social and medical services research, social policy, psychiatry, and epidemology. The methods and methodological difficulties involved in this type of work are highlighted, and insights into the dysfunctions and disorders that are investigated are provided.
