Nonfiction: Psychology, Psychiatry, Medical Research
My 5-Star review in entirety published at Amazon for author Kenna McKinnon’s Nonfiction book which delves into the subject of schizophrenia:
Illuminating and Informative
This well-written book composed by someone who’s been there and done that, delivered on its ambition to illuminate those who are unfamiliar with the mental illness of schizophrenia.
Comprehensive in scope, the author maintains a positive outlook throughout, and conveys hope for those afflicted with any form of mental illness.
From the gamut of clinically defining and explaining what schizophrenia is and isn’t, to the sobering statistics provided, the reader not only has a clearer understanding, but profound respect and admiration for those who fulfill and exceed their expectations to function on a daily basis.
In my opinion, many of the practical suggestions the author offers apply to anyone, as well as these wise words, “Do what you love. And do it with passion and hope. And never give up. Giving up is not an option.”
I highly recommend this illuminating book, a stepping stone to understanding schizophrenia.
