knowing more about schizophrenia

At first I have little information about schizophrenia as I work in abranch away from psycology I work in tumer markers laboratory concerning cancer .After reading this book I can say I gain a knew more facts about schizophrenia .In my country at least we lack books like these in arabic so I move one step forward and I started to translate this book in my language which is arabic . I am in the fourth chapter now and Iam planning to go on tell the end of this book so this will make alot of people whom they cant speak or read in english know more about this illness .I think this illness is one of the century diseas as every thing around us drive us crazy especially here in my country where alot of things going wrong.Unfortuntly during my working my son spoil the book but it is still readablle but I like to have a clean copy thats why I want to purchase a new one and in the meantime I will continue translation.I think this books covers all the essential parts which related to schizophrenia and it educate the family how to deal with the schezophrenic person and not to treat him as acrazy one as we have here they put him in the hospital and forget completly about him .In this book they explain some strange action for the patient which we concider out of manner and we judge the human according to his irrsponsible behavior ( in fact its in most of arabs we judge from the first time and not give the others achance ).To conclude this is an educational medical book every one must read it .
