Klappentext zu „Mental Health and Illness “
With contributions from Jeni Boyd and Sabi RedwoodThe way we understand, manage and treat mental illness has changed extensively in recent times, and the roles of mental health practitioners in the NHS are undergoing significant review.

Beginning with a comprehensive introduction to contemporary issues in mental health, this accessible guide discusses the current definitions of mental health, drawing attention to its complexities and diversities.
