In this work, Edward Shorter, a professor of psychiatry & the history of medicine argues for a return to the old fashioned concept of nervous illness. These are, he writes, diseases of the entire body, not the mind, & as was recognized as early as the 1600s. Shorter traces the evolution of the concept of 'nerves' & the 'nervous breakdown' in western medical thought. He points to a great paradigm shift in the first third of the 20th century that transferred behavioural disorders from neurology to psychiatry, spotlighting the mind, not the body. The catch-all term 'depression' now applies to virtually everything, 'a jumble of non-disease entities, created by political infighting within psychiatry, by competitive struggles in the pharmaceutical industry, and by the whimsy of the regulators.' Depression is a & very serious illness - it should not be diagnosed without regard to the rest of the body.

This is done with the primary intention of developing a new clinical approach, one which takes a proactive stance, emphasizing the need for creating work conditions that are more in harmony with the needs of the human being. Pivotal to this endeavor is to provide an integrative and comprehensive methodology, for assessing work stressors and ameliorating them whenever possible. This methodology, the Occupational Stressor Index, the OSI, was developed by the authors,
