Dealing with mental illness
Psychologist Stephen P. Hinshaw, a professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, has spent his career studying developmental psychopathology -- the makings of abnormal behavior. Now, he has written of his own childhood, which played out as his father battled manic depression.
"The Years of Silence Are Past," published by Cambridge University Press ($25), invites the reader to understand how families deal with severe mental illness.
