520 8 Mental illness is many things at once: It is a natural
phenomenon that is also shaped by society and culture. It
is biological but also behavioral and social. Mental
illness is a problem of both the brain and the mind, and
this ambiguity presents a challenge for those who seek to
accurately classify psychiatric disorders. The leading
resource we have for doing so is the American Psychiatric
Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, but no
edition of the manual has provided a decisive solution,
and all have created controversy. In The Diagnostic System,
the sociologist Jason Schnittker looks at the multiple
actors involved in crafting the DSM and the many interests
that the manual hopes to serve. Is the DSM the best tool
for defining mental illness? Can we insure against a
misleading approach? Schnittker shows that the
classification of psychiatric disorders is best understood
within the context of a system that involves diverse
parties with differing interests. The public wants a
better understanding of personal suffering. Mental-health
professionals seek reliable and treatable diagnostic
categories. Scientists want definitions that correspond as
closely as possible to nature. Everyone seeks definitive
insight into what they regard as the right target. Yet
even the best classification system cannot satisfy all of
these interests simultaneously. Progress toward an ideal
is difficult, and revisions to diagnostic criteria often
serve the interests of one group at the expense of
another.
