Our living conditions have determined that psychiatry is to open its gates wide towards the refreshing atmosphere of philosophical thinking. The newly-arisen therapy matters can no longer be delimited from the conceptual, methodological and axiological ones, so that — as already remarked by Brune Callieri in a recent study on relinquishing the pos-itivistic myth of the “remarks devoid of theoretical load” in present psychopathology — one has to accept that, with psychiatry, scientific knowledge needs to resort to “philosophical presuppositions and value choices”.1
