This collection of books on psychiatry will allow those interested in this area of study to learn about its fundamental principles and to learn about scientifically rigorous studies related to mental illness.
It was not until two centuries ago that mental illnesses were considered as an object of medical research and intervention, since in almost all of human history they were associated with a magical, spiritual or moral issue. At the end of the 18th century a great step was taken when psychiatry was founded.
It was in the 19th century that the concept of mental illness saw the light of day and in the 20th century medical practices were introduced for psychiatric patients who were confined in specialized centers. These included electroshock, lobotomy, leucotomy and pharmacological treatments.
Today psychiatry is defined as the medical specialty that studies mental illnesses, their types, causes, treatments and processes. Psychiatrists are therefore physicians who specialize in this area. Their goal is to alleviate the suffering of the mentally ill, which includes physical, psychological and social aspects.
Current treatments in psychiatry are psychopharmacological, psychotherapeutic and socio-therapeutic. In other words, a comprehensive approach is sought that seeks the well-being and social integration of the patient, far from the radical and invasive practices of the past.

Forensic Psychiatry Books
Forensic psychiatry is a branch of psychiatry, which is defined as the application of clinical psychiatry to law, with the aim of establishing the state of mental faculties, in order to delimit the degree of criminal responsibility and civil capacity of the individual after committing a crime.
It is undoubtedly one of the most difficult, since it is not easy to know to what extent a person is out of their mind to commit a crime. In this sense, there are many errors that have been presented, so it is necessary for professionals to be well prepared.
This department is in charge of determining which people with mental problems pose a risk to the population, as well as treating criminals and people in security hospitals.
