I read this to gain some background knowledge for a psychology assignment, but I found myself citing a few relevant points for the essay itself.

This book is a very concise and interesting introduction to the subject of schizophrenia, that has a surprising amount of breadth and depth for its short length. This introduction manages to introduce one to most areas of research regarding schizophrenia, including the history, treatments and fairly up to date research findings, without becoming too dry to hold the attentions of the laymen.

If you have even a passing interest in this mental disorder then I would wholeheartedly recommend you read this book, as it is the perfect place to start, and, due to its rather short length (though not as short as the title would have you believe) it can be read rather easily in a few hours.
