'Tsou's deep fluency with philosophy of science will make his contribution particularly useful for philosophers familiar with central themes in that field, such as natural kinds, realism, and causation, who want to learn about the application of these themes in a medical context. … a nice introduction for newcomers to philosophy of science who are motivated to learn about philosophy of science through their interest in the challenges facing contemporary psychiatry.' Kathryn Tabb, Metascience

Kathryn Tabb, Metascience 'Tsou covers an amazing amount of ground with great clarity. The book will profit individuals with little background in philosophy of science or psychiatry and will benefit specialists given Tsou's distinctive thesis. It is no small thing to provide both a useful primer for non-specialists while at the same time making a novel and attractive contribution to the understanding of mental illness.' Mark Tully, The Journal of Value Inquiry
