"Investigations by neuroscientists reveal that many forms of mental
illness may result from alterations in normal brain functioning.  A
psychosis is often accompanied by shifts in neurotransmitter balances or
changes in the brain's electrical patterns.  Can mental illness be
explained on the basis of changes within the brain?  Neuroscientists are
at the point where answers to such questions may soon be possible"
