Such modern coinages are re-

defines new Latin thus: THE

scription and classification, and
especially in scientific names
coined in Latin form from
Latin, Greek or modern ele-

The term schizophrenia was
coined by the Swiss psychiatrist
Eugen Bleuler. during the late
1905. According to his inter-
probation, the term describes
"dementia praecox "a common
form of insanity which repre-
eents cleavage or fissuration OF
