Originally published as a special issue of Psychoanalytic
Psychotherapy, this collection was timed to coincide with the
publication of the new NICE guideline for the treatment of
depression, which will shape the context of NHS talking therapy
services for the next decade. In 2005, Professor Lord Layard
demonstrated for the first time that mental health should matter to
the UK Treasury. Layard showed that the cost of untreated
depression was huge due to welfare spending on invalidity benefits,
and that this was a social problem rising across the OECD, but more
so in the UK. NICE had already published a clinical guideline
recommending several talking therapies that were cost-effective.
Why could no one still get them? In 2007, under New Labour, the
world's first universal free-at-the-point-of-need service was
launched to remedy this: IAPT Improving Access to Psychological
Therapies. Thus began a race against depression, predicted by the
World Health Organisation to become the leading cause of disability
worldwide by 2020. But on the eve of NICE's new guideline for
depression, due in 2021, it is now clear that across large parts of
the UK we are set to lose this race. Badly. Why? What went wrong?
Clarke, Cundy and Yakeley have brought together a group of
researchers and experts in this collection who address some of the
fundamental flaws in the policy design for IAPT. By drawing
attention to neglected social and interpersonal origins of
depression, pointing us towards more effective approaches, and
seeking to pinpoint some of the gaps in thinking during IAPT's
first decade, this book offers alternative answers to what still
remains Britain's biggest social problem.

The life and works of one of England's very best writers is
explored in this miscellany
Charles Dickens' life was staggeringly busy and various. This
new miscellany will give readers a chance to get to know the man
and his work through his work and its major themes. With carefully
chosen quotations from the novels but also from his sketches and
journalism, discover what Dickens had to say about the big issues
like crime, the family, education, and money. Meet here, too, those
wonderful characters that have been handed down to us like the real
figures of history--Mr. Micawber, Fagin, Miss Havisham, David
Copperfield, and many more. Concentrated in these pages is a
selection of all the mad humor, passionate indignation, moral
conviction, plain good sense, and sheer unstoppable energy that
made up one of the very greatest of English writers.
