Classification of Endogenous Psychoses and their Differentiated Etiology

More about the book

Focusing on the classification of psychiatric diseases, the book presents Leonhard's innovative approach, which categorizes endogenous psychoses into five main groups based on long-term clinical observations. It distinguishes between prognostically favorable conditions, such as unipolar and bipolar affective psychoses, and unfavorable ones, including schizophrenia. Supported by scientific validation, this classification offers insights into the origins and diverse therapeutic strategies tailored to specific disease profiles, enhancing the understanding and treatment of psychiatric disorders.
