The cornerstone of any psychiatric evaluation, the mental status exam, requires an assessment of insight - a term commonly employed by clinicians to describe a patient's awareness (or lack thereof) of having a mental disorder. However, the term has become riddled with conceptual ambiguities. This book takes a multidisciplinary approach in order to examine faithfully the nature and significance of insight.
