This is a very well-written book on a very interesting premise: to post-humously diagnosis famous people based on what we now know in the field of neuroscience and psychiatry, and using the recently updated DSM as a guide. ( ) A list of world famous people with personality disorders as she describes them from DSM, sans footnotes or other references. Some were interesting, some were boring. Some people had pretty full biographies some not so much. A lot of psychological allegations & supposition. What she wrote about Marilyn Monroe pissed me off; saying that Marilyn Monroe made up the stories about her being abused while in foster care... Seriously? Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
