Clancy D. McKenzie, MD and Lance S. Wright, MD I was very skeptical about [Dr. McKenzie’s] findings, but the Finnish database on 6,000 schizophrenic patients revealed a very high level of statistical significance. We confirmed a substantially higher rate of schizophrenia among those with siblings less than two years younger. ––Sarnoff Mednick, Social Science Research Institute, University of Southern California The concepts presented are based on sound psychodynamic principles supported by findings in the literature. Theory is a marriage between psychological and biological, spanning the neuroses and psychoses, from infancy to old age. It identifies mental illness as one mechanism, and psychology and biology as one process. As such, it is the beginning of a new unification theory of mental illness. ––O. Spurgeon English, formerly of Temple University This book breaks with traditional thinking from the first paragraph ... offers an alternative to viewing, treating, managing and preventing serious emotional disorders ... breaks ground in suggesting the role of early trauma in accounting for mental disorders throughout the life cycle, in identifying the two trauma mechanism, and in the conceptualization of early traumatic events relating to the development of Borderlines, Schizophrenia, PTSD, Autism, Symbiosis and other disorders–– forcing academics to reevaluate our thinking. The research is respectable, adds to their arguments and is in support of their model. ––Charles F. Figley, Psychosocial Stress Research Program, Florida State University Through literature review and their own research, Drs. McKenzie and Wright demonstrate the profound relationship between early infant trauma and the later development of serious emotional disorders. Evidence of early traumatic origin may soon be recognized as one of the most important research findings in recent decades. This model goes beyond prevalent thinking to show that biological research only measures the results of the disease process and does not address the origins of mental illness. This book identifies primary prevention and offers new treatment methods based on the recognition of the two trauma mechanism.
