The clinical distinction between neurology and psychiatry is increasingly appreciated as awkward and artificial. Neurology has traditionally focused on organic disorders with identifiable pathology, whereas psychiatry has focused on functional disorders without observable pathology. If one cannot measure something that has the mathematical definition for a particular type of functional disorder defined by the mathematics defining the science of pathology while pathology defines the problems that physicians solve then, obviously physicians cannot solve some problems that are defined by the science of pathology such as the particular problem (e.g. a particular type of functional disorder) is a false English statement.
