An important contribution to the ongoing debate over the origins of mental illness, this book is based on the largest study ever of identical twins in which one was ill and the other not. The book provides compelling evidence that both schizophrenia and manic-depressive disorder are biologically based diseases of the brain, unrelated to psychological influences.

So the study covers sixty-six(66) pairs of twins and how they developed the symptoms and whether or not both of the twins got the mental illness. With charts and graphs it statistically analyzes the illness.
The other problem can be inferred from the date of publication. This book is 22 years old. It is legally old enough to vote and drink alcohol in all 50 States and maybe even in other countries. Now that might not be a problem if the study was static or something, but in the field of Genetics and Schizophrenia? It was moving so fast back then already. The Human Genome Project was still running. Bill Clinton was President. That stuff is crazy old.
