Peter Gotszche, doctor, has specialized in statistics and methodology of clinical trials. After publishing Deadly Medicines And Organized Crime (2014), he published in English and was quickly translated into spanish Deadly Psychiatry And Organized Denial (2016) by Editorial Libros del Lince (Barcelona). On this occasion he makes a sharp criticism of the indiscriminate use of psychotropic drugs, focusing his interest in current psychiatry. He questions the diagnostic methods, the supposed biochemical etiology of the psychiatric illnesses and the way in which the clinical tests are carried out, naming as pseudoscience the psychiatric investigation. Denounces the place of psychotropic drugs in the clinical practice of psychiatrists and how they see no progress in their patients and further increase the use of psychotropic drugs that are harmful to death.

Keywords : Psychotropic drugs; Psychiatry; Diagnosis.
