Book Hero thinking about your next read

This book presents a critical overview of the main theoretical perspectives relevant to mental health practice. The book argues that no one theory provides a comprehensive framework for practice and in turn it examines traditional models of mental health as well as new and challenging ideas in the field.

This is a one-stop shop for topics often overlooked in the field of mental health. I will be recommending it to my own students. - Bob Tummey, Senior Lecturer and Course Director for Mental Health Nursing, Coventry University, UK.
