This book concerns clinical psychology, but it is most concerned
with the world outside the clinic. That world-where culture,
history, and economy are found-radically impacts the public's
mental health. However these worldly considerations often do not
feature centrally in the science and practice of clinical
psychology, a subfield of psychology seemingly dedicated to mental
health. Desai offers a corrective by travelling out of the clinic
and into the world, exploring ideas, movements, and thinkers that
help broaden our approach to well-being, by situating it within its
cultural, historical, and sociopolitical contexts. The book aims to
be an intercultural journey itself-encountering Buddhism,
phenomenology, Edmund Husserl, Mahatma Gandhi, and Rev. Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr. along the way. Featuring a Foreword by Jeffrey
Sachs, the book positions pressing matters such as social justice,
racial justice, and environmental justice as integral components of
good mental health work. The book will be of interest to readers
interested in cultural and community approaches to psychological
science and practice.
