Madness Distress And The Politics Of Disablement by Helen Spandler, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

This book explores the challenges of applying disability theory and policy, including the social model of disability, to madness and distress. It brings together leading scholars and activists from Europe, North America, Australia, and India, to explore the relationship between madness, distress, and disability. Whether mental health problems should be viewed as disabilities is a pressing concern, especially since the inclusion of psychosocial disability in the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. This book will appeal to policy makers, practitioners, activists, and academics. | Madness Distress And The Politics Of Disablement by Helen Spandler, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
