O knihe
"'Possessed': A Misinterpreted Cultural Concoction For Mental Disorders", is a factual narration in the field of psychiatric literature. This is not a horror story or novel, but exposes something even more demonic than what spirit possession actually is. The work attempts to disseminate the strings between mental health circumstances and superstitious impostors. 'Possessed' does not give a declaration of whether spirit possession exists; it does not bias the audience against proclaimed religious and philosophical occurrences, however, it does take a leap forward in analyzing true stories, news events and facts to understand the cause and effect of socially misconstrued ideas which assign the name 'demonic possession', often to medically diagnosed disorders. With wonderful stories from Hindu mythology, popular cultural beliefs in South Asian construct, religious facts, oral traditions and stimulated practices from across the world, the book connects readers to their childhood and growing years, at the same time establishing a scientific reasoning for 'possessed' people.
