This Handbook gathers together empirical and theoretical chapters
from leading scholars and clinicians to examine the broad issue of
adult mental health. The contributors draw upon data from a variety
of contexts to illustrate the multiple ways in which language as
action can assist us in better understanding the discursive
practices that surround adult mental health. Conversation and
discourse analysis are useful, related approaches for the study of
mental health conditions, particularly when underpinned by a social
constructionist framework. In the field of mental health, the use
of these two approaches is growing, with emergent implications for
adults with mental health conditions, their practitioners, and/or
their families. Divided into four parts; Reconceptualising Mental
Health and Illness; Naming, Labelling and Diagnosing; The
Discursive Practice of Psychiatry; and Therapy and Interventions;
this Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of current debates
regarding adult mental health.
