Models of Madness summarises the research showing that hallucinations and delusions are understandable reactions to life events and circumstances rather than symptoms of a biologically-based illness or genetic predisposition.
23 international contributors:
• critique the ‘medical model’ of madness
• examine the dominance of the ‘illness’ approach to understanding madness, from historical and economic perspectives
• document the adverse role of drug companies
• outline a range of research-based psychosocial treatment approaches
• identify the urgency and possibility of prevention of madness
Models of Madness promotes a more humane and effective response to treating severely distressed people that will prove essential reading for all those who work in, use, manage or research mental health services.
