Psychiatric Disorders as Disorders of Consciousness" offers a pioneering perspective on mental illness, reframing major psychiatric conditions as disruptions in consciousness and affective regulation. In this innovative volume, Abdalaziz Khairallah integrates neuroscience, psychology, and clinical research to explore how changes in core cognitive and emotional processes lead to disorders such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.
Drawing on the latest scientific advances, the book provides a comprehensive framework connecting perception, memory, attention, decision-making, and affect to conscious experience. Accessible yet deeply insightful, this work is essential for clinicians, researchers, students, and readers seeking to understand the links between consciousness and mental health, as well as approaches for holistic assessment and intervention.
