But can a diagnosis do us more harm than good?\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eThe boundaries between sickness and health are being redrawn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMental health categories are shifting and expanding all the time, radically altering what we consider to be 'normal'. Genetic tests can now detect pathologies decades before people experience symptoms, and sometimes before they're even born. And increased health screening draws more and more people into believing they are unwell.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn accurate diagnosis can bring greater understanding and of course improved treatment. But many diagnoses aren't as definitive as we think. And in some cases they risk turning healthy people into patients.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on the stories of real people, as well as decades of clinical practice and the latest medical research, Dr Suzanne O'Sullivan overturns long held assumptions and transforms how we think about illness and health.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*As heard on Good Morning Britain, Sky News, Radio 4 Today and more.*\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Suzanne O’Sullivan","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":53093820989779,"sku":"9781399727662","price":11.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/suzanne-o-sullivan-age-of-diagnosis-9781399727662-1222163903.jpg?v=1771893969","url":"https:\/\/chaptersbookstore.com\/products\/age-of-diagnosis","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
