Autorenporträt
Jack Bragen is the award-winning author of "Instructions for Dealing with Schizophrenia..." Over the past decade he has maintained a column in the Berkeley Daily Planet, "On Mental Illness." Since 2001, he has been a frequent contributor to The Street Spirit Newspaper, including essays, fiction and commentary. He has placed more than five Op-Eds in East Bay Times and San Jose Mercury. He has placed about a half dozen fiction pieces in Bewildering Stories. Mr. Bragen has lived with psychiatric illness his entire adult life, but this never convinced him that he could not accomplish anything. Through "compliance" with treatment, Jack has remained in remission from severe psychosis and has not needed hospitalization, since 1996. This volume speaks to people who've had less than stellar lives and who would like to have a piece of the pie. Not the whole pie, just a piece of it.
