Tribute to Professor J. J. López-Ibor, in collaboration with the LILLY FOUNDATION.

This publication aims to show the vanguard of knowledge about different aspects of Psychiatry, a branch of Medicine that is dedicated to the study and treatment of mental illnesses, whose objective is to prevent, diagnose, treat and rehabilitate disorders of the mind.

It is a collection of six guides that address the main mental issues.

They are designed for both patients and people who suffer or have suffered a mental illness, in order to better understand their symptoms, are able to recover more easily. We also believe that the knowledge of these diseases helps without a doubt to combat the stigma of mental illness.

The author starts with conversations with Professor López Ibor to present, to the general reader, a vision of man, his work and his time. With a clear and precise style, it follows the trajectory of the thought of the eminent psychiatrist, which he defines with a metaphor of Ortega in which he alludes to the red thread that is twisted in all the cables of the Royal English Navy.
