An exploration of the interface between psychosis and spirituality. It draws on research and developments from a range of disciplines and challenges conventional understandings. Topics covered include schizotypy, the neuropsychological perspective, and the mystical side of psychosis.
Spirituality and psychosis both inhabit the region where ordinary reason ceases to function and barriers break down. The connection between them is evident - what is remarkable is how conventional thinking obscures the connection. This volume challenges conventional understandings. The interface between psychosis and spirituality is explored, drawing on research and developments from a wide spread of disciplines. The 12 contributors include Gordon Claridge on schizotypy, Peter Fenwick on the neuropsychological perspective, Neil Douglas-Klotz on an understanding of spirituality, Peter Chadwick on the mystical side of psychosis, and David Kingdon on CBT for psychosis and religious disorders.
