[edit] "factually incorrect"comment

There is inflammatory comment on him being 'factually incorrect". Given the biog is concise, it reads as if the man is a charlatan. He is not. His comment on the genetic aspects on schizoprenia were collected from a review of 40 studies by medics in profession, printed in a peer journal.

This is what science does. People can challenge the ideas of today if they have some evidence based reason.

There is no "factually" right or wrong in almost all health and especially mental health issues.

There are only degrees of likelyhood in most cases.

Would you write in Einstein's biog "factually incorrect in many aspects of physics"? (speak to a physicist, the particle physicists will fill you in)

Just seemed to me to be very negative comment.

ps he does believe the proposition as he wonders why mental health problems have exploded over last 50 years - this cannot be purely genetic. We are not fruit flies able to change genes in 50 years of breeding.
