I read this book by Ronald Bassman and it was great. It really exposed the problems in the way we approach the field of psychology and especially psychology. All people really need is a friend and a degree of understanding. That point is really driven home in the book.
It really bashes the current 21st century approach to psychiatry and psychology. Drug em and beat them till they behave. That is especially true in dealing with Schizophrenia, which Ronald Bassman had two round abouts with. He nearly admits it as him exploring his intellectual curiousities by tampering with conventional thought processes.
