  • Summary

    This is a general introduction to the book Conceptualizing Personality Disorder: Perspectives from Philosophy, Psychological Science, and Psychiatry. It describes two overarching goals of the book: to encourage more philosophers to tackle the complicated issue of personality disorder and to demonstrate to psychologists and psychiatrists the relevance of some philosophical theories and perspectives for conceptualizing personality disorder. It briefly summarizes each chapter of the book as divided into sections. The sections are (1) Historical Perspectives, (2) Contemporary Approaches to Traditional Conceptual Perspectives, (3) Novel Conceptual Approaches to Personality Disorder, (4) Exploring Negative Consequences of Diagnosing Personality Disorder, and (5) Perspectives on Borderline and Narcissistic Personality.
