- A Profession Without Reason offers a description of psychiatry's crisis with respect to poor outcomes, its jettisoning of the DSM diagnostic bible, its retreat from its "chemical-imbalance theory" of mental illness, and other admissions, reversals, and controversies; and an explanation of how beliefs about mental illness are products of fear, which fuel superstitions and what Spinoza called "inadequate ideas"-confused and vague conceptualizations that are partially or completely false.
- Levine portrays a description of Spinoza's life that will intrigue readers unfamiliar with him as well as easily understandable explanations of key elements of his ideas that are relevant to contemporary psychiatry.
- Levine's professional experience as a clinical psychologist that combines not only three decades of patient care and extensive knowledge of the empirical research but a personal familiarity of radically enlightened mental health professionals and former patients-a familiarity that will give readers access to a fascinating underground movement which offers alternatives to psychiatry with respect to paradigms and remedies.
