This book is a challenge to the enduring status and domination of
bio-medical approaches in mental health services. Contributors from
four continents argue that this domination, along with
modernization and multidisciplinary work, will not improve people's
lives unless social and psychological perspectives are appreciated
and integrated. This implies new forms of relationships and social
arrangements. Mental Health at the Crossroads: the Promise of the
Psychosocial Approach is a timely analysis of the psychosocial
approach as it resonates across the discipline divide, considering
the past and future development. It is written from the
perspectives of service users and carers, managers, practitioners,
educators, researchers and policy makers, illustrated with case
studies from Australia, Brazil, Italy, UK and the USA. This book
presents an alternative approach to conventional thinking in mental
health, providing a fascinating and valuable resource for those
seeking new perspectives, grounded in theory with practice
examples, in order to influence the current agenda and change
practice.
