Abstract

The history and conceptual evolution of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) of mental disorders of the American Psychiatric Association provide a lens through which to examine recent development, debates and state of the art of psychiatry. In this article, I identify and critically discuss key epistemological features and crucial historical stages of the rise and fall of the DSM approach, in order to provide indications of what might be expected in the field of mental health in the near future.
