       Title: Hidden Valley Road: Inside the Mind of an American Family
       Author: Robert  Kolker
       *************************************************************
       Book Descriptions: The heartrending story of a midcentury
       American family with twelve children, six of them diagnosed with
       schizophrenia, that became science's great hope in the quest to
       understand the disease.Don and Mimi Galvin seemed to be living
       the American dream. After World War II, Don's work with the Air
       Force brought them to Colorado, where their twelve children
       perfectly spanned the baby boom: the oldest born in 1945, the
       youngest in 1965. In those years, there was an established
       script for a family like the Galvins--aspiration, hard work,
       upward mobility, domestic harmony--and they worked hard to play
       their parts. But behind the scenes was a different story:
       psychological breakdown, sudden shocking violence, hidden abuse.
       By the mid-1970s, six of the ten Galvin boys, one after another,
       were diagnosed as schizophrenic. How could all this happen to
       one family? What took place inside the house on Hidden Valley
       Road was so extraordinary that the Galvins became one of the
       first families to be studied by the National Institute of Mental
       Health. Their story offers a shadow history of the science of
       schizophrenia, from the era of institutionalization, lobotomy,
       and the schizophrenogenic mother to the search for genetic
       markers for the disease, always amid profound disagreements
       about the nature of the illness itself. And unbeknownst to the
       Galvins, samples of their DNA informed decades of genetic
       research that continues today, offering paths to treatment,
       prediction, and even eradication of the disease for future
       generations. With clarity and compassion, bestselling and
       award-winning author Robert Kolker uncovers one family's
       unforgettable legacy of suffering, love, and hope.
