Description: A Prescription for Psychiatry lays bare the flaws and failings of traditional mental health care and offers a radical alternative. Exposing the old - fashioned biological 'disease model of psychiatry as unscientific and unhelpful it calls for a revolution in the way we plan and deliver care. Kinderman challenges the way we think about mental health problems arguing that the origins of distress are largely social and urges a change from a 'disease model to a 'psychosocial model'. The book persuasively argues that we should significantly reduce our use of psychiatric medication and help should be tailored to each person's unique needs. This is a manifesto for an entirely new approach to psychiatric care; one that truly offers care rather than coercion therapy rather than medication and a return to the common sense appreciation that distress is usually an understandable reaction to life's challenges.
