Understanding Paranoia

"In this book, the author takes the reader inside the minds of people who are paranoid: experiencing delusions of persecution ranging from thinking others are "out to get" them to falsely believing they have physical illness. Kantor also explains to us other facets of the Paranoid Personality, including suspiciousness, hypersensitivity, extreme vigilance, simmering anger, and a tendency to blame others for and absolve oneself of almost everything. As Kantor explains, the term "paranoid" should not be used as a hurtful epithet. "Paranoid individuals are no more or less evil than persons with any other emotional disorder, or for that matter, persons with a physical disorder. Paranoia is a disorder of the mind, not a flaw of character," says Kantor."--BOOK JACKET.

המשפט הראשון: A paranoid individual's characteristic problems with appearance, speech, thought, behavior, mood, insight, judgment, and intelligence when taken together trace a recognizable pattern called the mental status.
