I used this book in one of my Psychology classes in an alternative high school. It is a fairly easy read, well-written and of interest to the "general" reader as well as someone specifically interested in mental health/illness.
This young brother writes of his older brother's evolving schizophrenia in an honest and thoughtful manner. It fostered excellent discussions with my students. I recommend it, particularly if you are seeking honest (and sometimes graphic)observations of one family's journey along this unpredictable road of mental illness.

Fascinating memoir of life with a schizophrenic brother.
I read this book for the first time in 2002. I bought another copy a few months ago and i just havent really picked it up.
