The contrasting therapy and theory on
manic depression from Dr. Schiffer and Dr. Pettigrew scarcely represent
the innumerable perspectives, and solutions proposed to explain different
diseases, and disorders within the scientific community. It
is to our benefit to be well informed about these things. They will
affect us in some fashion, whether it be tomorrow or in two years. Since
these theories were introduced some time ago, they have already had
an impact on our thinking. The stereotypes that pervade American society
that dogmatically explain away intuitiveness, emotional sensitivity,
logic and other sex associated traits are being corroborated by science.
Twenty years ago when left brain, right brain theories were first introduced,
people tried to apply them to every situation. For example, to say or
believe that males are physically incapable of emotional sensitivity.
These theories, yet to be proven imply that our personalities, strengths
and weaknesses may be a function of nature.
