I haven't read the book, but it seems difficult to imagine a world in which schizophrenia would be conducive to survival. I mean, I've never heard anyone who has it say anything about the voices telling them anything particularly
useful, and it tends to preclude other activities. And even in a nontechnological world, you have to get the crops planted on time...
