Of course I read his reasoning more as a reason why I think much of the field of psychiatry is mostly garbage (something I thought many conservatives agreed with me on).
He takes a bunch of ad homs about "how liberals think" and calls them mental illness in the same logic ivory tower psychologists deem every incconvenient emotional or mental state as a "pathology."
But since he's the one ivory tower academic that tells y'all what you want to hear, you'll buy his book. I have to give him props for his marketing strategy there.

Oh yeah? Well it will work too. However correct your observation is above, I'm sure I'll have the last laugh when I read the darn thing (and I'm sure more than one anyway). It ought to give me plenty of ammo for posts here in the forum. Look, at the very least, you can't point to any issues that conservatives are commited to that are anywhere close to the loonatic fringe issues like global

warming, gay

marriage, depleted

uranium, abort

ion, et al. How the libs just love their sacred cows.
