About this book
Social Justice, Social Discrimination, and Mental Health explores the theory and background of social justice in the context of mental health of individuals, cultures, and communities.
This ground-breaking book is a comprehensive text which defines what the 'social justice agenda' in therapeutic fields is and provides concrete and innovative descriptions of social justice in practice. With case studies and examples of real-life practice from a team of international contributors, it covers the full range of activities that mental health professionals need to deliver their services.
This text will be essential reading for students, early career professionals, and those training in psychiatry, psychotherapy, clinical, counselling, and community psychology, as well as senior practitioners.
