Schiophrenic Women is a fascinating report on the lives of seventeen families that suffered the experiences associated with the hospitaliation of the wife and mother for mental illness. A description and analysis of representative experiences is presented here in an attempt to investigate various key issuesthe patterns of family living preceding the crisis leading to medical hospitaliation, how the patterns fell apart, how personal and family crises became psychiatric emergencies, how the hospital experiences modified both the immediate crises and the earlier patterns of livingand how durable those changes were once the patients had returned home.
