Everything you need to understand or teach Strangers to Ourselves by Rachel Aviv.
Rachel Aviv's Strangers to Ourselves: Unsettled Minds and the Stories That Make Us traces the lives of six individuals and their experiences with mental illness. By tracing her research subjects' responses to their respective diagnoses, Aviv is considering the ways in which psychiatry may or may not tell a complete story about the individual.
