Domestic violence can have crippling effects physically, mentally and emotionally to the victim. Some of the victims' experiences are horrifi c and traumatic resulting in mental illness, substance misuse and alcohol abuse. The hostility and anger that comes from the abuse has often led some victims to retaliate in ways that land them in prison or mental institutions. Margret is a victim of domestic violence herself and has worked with victims of abuse. She outlines how she survived domestic violence through learning that God is always available to listen, comfort, deliver and restore especially in diffi cult and lonely times. (Psalms 91)

Schizophrenia has long puzzled researchers in the fields of psychiatric medicine and anthropology. Why is it that the rates of developing schizophrenia—long the poster child for the biomedical model of psychiatric illness—are low in some countries and higher in others? And why do migrants to Western countries find that they are at higher risk for this disease after they arrive? T. M. Luhrmann and Jocelyn Marrow argue that the root causes of schizophrenia are not only biological, but also sociocultural. This book gives an intimate, personal account of those living with serious psychotic disorder in the United States, India, Africa, and Southeast Asia. It introduces the notion that social defeat—the physical or symbolic defeat of one person by another—is a core mechanism in the increased risk for psychotic illness. Furthermore, “care-as-usual” treatment as it occurs in the United States actually increases the likelihood of social defeat, while “care-as-usual” treatment in a country like India diminishes it.
