Against; Allen Frances, Robert Spitzer, L. Ron Hubbard, British Psychological Society In Favor; GlaxoSmithKline, Eli Lilly and Company, and Pfizer.
Robert Spitzer and L. Ron Hubbard lead to the same wiki article. Could you be clearer about the point you are making?
Hazarding a guess, "So how about the DSM; critics both serious and unserious, a billion-dollar industry to be fed. And the idea of confidently categorizing normalcy and abnormality so minutely is simultaneously a gob-stoppingly tricky philosophical conundrum and a very concrete question of medical policy that impacts the lives of millions in a profound life-changing way." It seems like most people I've talked to on the matter have deep issues with the DSM as a schematization of mental health, and yet what does one do, given how central it is to theory and practice?
Nothing to add, just a curiosity of what "DSM-V" was and found this: http://www.healthnewsreview.org/201...c-approval-of-dsm-v-a-sad-day-for-psychiatry/ Edit: we're all f-d up and need drugs, says big pharma.
