520    "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 the other, 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 
       Institutes 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 amidst 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"--
