Overview

"The author's book, ""Curing Mental Illness"" describes the results from his research he completed for the Canadian Space Agency's Predictive Medicine Program in cooperation with the Russian Cosmonauts in 2012 and 2013 to determine if the author could use his company's PHM technology to predict which astronauts in training would become mentally ill on a deep space mission lasting several years. An edited copy by the CSA of the results of the author's research were published at the 2013 IEEE/AIAA Aerospace Conference held in Big Sky Montana for the CSA's Predictive Medicine Program personnel and subsequently the full results were submitted to NASA Headquarters in 2013 and published on-line for public access in the American Journal of Applied Psychology. Curing Mental Illness provides a complete explanation for acquiring emotional and mental illnesses as well as a program for recovering from emotional and mental disorders such as depression, anxiety, OCD, through bi-polar or schizophrenia as well as an explanation for why and how the fight or flight response causes autism in developing fetuses/babies. The author includes the description of why and how these are acquired by the fetus and people and how they are nothing more than our own body's defensive process trying to get us safe and keep us safe from our own life threatening decisions and lifestyle and the external environment for fetuses. Curing Mental Illness includes two massive reference sections and excerpts in the body of the text from members of the existing and past mental health community members and their professional opinions that the author has refuted with his own research results at the beginning of the book. The author also includes both the authors results to answers to common questions left unanswered by the current mental health community and many sections of current inadequate material published about emotional and mental disorders for comparing with the authors results. The author hopes this book will initiate a new direction in developing faster recovery programs that are quicker than the one proposed by the author as well as a new effort for pharmaceutical companies to develop the drugs to suppress our fight-or-flight response (FOFR) that the author has illustrated is the root cause of autism and emotional and mental disorders as well as all non-genetic based disorders, diseases and illnesses including all auto-immune and immune system diseases such as arthritis and digestive track diseases such as Crohn's disease."

Author Information

The author lives in California, he's married and a father of three children and a grandfather to five grandchildren. The author has worked in communications theory for over 30 years. Len first experience with communications theory occurred following his first graduation from college, Len became an expert in communications science used in Electrical Engineering to receive and transmit information from and to space. This education enhanced his knowledge about communications skills development used in other applications. Academically, Len earned three A.A. degrees, two B.S. degrees in Physics and Mathematics simultaneously, an M.A. degree and Ph.D in Electrical Engineering and an M.S. degree in Education. Professionally, the author is an award winning spacecraft designer and he design satellites, spacecraft and rockets for the U.S. military and NASA. Len's most important accomplishment professionally occurred when he was the Boeing GPS Space and ground systems Manager and won funding for the U.S. Air Force's Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite-based navigation system by the Department of Defense/Pentagon. His collaborations with counseling, psychologists and psychiatrists began in 1989 and continues today, working with holistic medicine practitioners and students and in the new field of predictive medicine created by the author for mental health. In 2000, Len was diagnosed with bi-polar disorder and began his personal experience with the talk therapy and pharmaceutical treatments for bi-polar disorder and schizophrenia using the standard cocktail of medications. In his personal research, Len discovered that through his own education and exposure the mental health community, they had no idea what caused emotional and mental illnesses, describing them only by their symptoms. After spending 6 years on psychotropic medications, and suffering the primary and secondary side effects and dysfunction they caused him in his employment from the medications and failing to achieve any improvement but recognizing that his own understanding of his illnesses and symptoms was far greater than any of the many psychiatrist that treated him. So when the Canadian Space Agency requested that he apply his proprietary, predictive algorithms to the data from astronauts in training for a several year, interplanetary deep space mission to determine if he could predict which astronauts would become mentally ill, he agreed to do it.
