We live in an age of rampant biological reductionism, which is obvious in many contemporary scientific publications. Steven Hyman, Director of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) from 1996 to 2001, stated in 1998 that “Mental illnesses are real, diagnosable, treatable brain disorders.” This is a commonly accepted notion in psychiatry and medicine, and mental disorders are often defined as brain disorders. For instance, Zhang et al. (2005) introduce Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) as a “brain disorder with 2%-19% population prevalence and 40%-70% heritability.” Bewernick et al. (2010) inform us that “Major depression is the most common serious brain disorder with a lifetime prevalence of up to 17%.”
