Abstract
When traced back, it was found that cognitive and psychological disorders were reported frequently in history. Symptoms of schizophrenia initially were compared and were confused as dementia and were tossed with the same. However, schizophrenia remained an enigma until early 1900. It was Eugen Bleuler who used the word Schizophrenia for the very first time in 1911. Diagnosis and treatment of schizophrenia have been a concern for almost every researcher. Different patients experience different prominent symptoms but the major ones are hallucination, delusion, emotional withdrawal, and cognitive impairment. Depending upon the symptoms schizophrenia is further divided into different types of schizophrenia. There have been constant changes in the treatments and ways to diagnose schizophrenia. This chapter introduces the various perspectives of the disorder in all aspects as well as states the recent advancements in all spheres for the diagnosis and treatment of schizophrenia.
