Vivek Datta, a second year psychiatry resident at the University of Washington, Seattle, is currently writing his first book, The Psychopathology of American Life: How We All Became Mentally Ill, which explores how and why the concept of mental disorder has vastly expanded over the past century and wider societal implications.

He has posted a thoughtful essay titled as "Science and Pseudoscience in Psychiatric Training: What Psychiatrists Don't Learn and What Psychiatrists Should Learn" to his blog :
