Thomas A. Ban: Psychopathology- unedited notes from the 1990s

Thomas A. Ban’s reply to Leonardo Tondo’s commentary

Thank you for your commentary on my “unedited notes” on “psychopathology” in which you juxta pose three different concepts of “psychopathology:” Jasper’s, Kraepelin’s and Freud’s. Undoubtedly, these “three giants” dealt with different aspects of “psychopathology” using the term in a broad sense. My essay dealt exclusively with Jasperian psychopathology that together with psychiatric nosology provided a foundation for psychiatry.
