Produktinformation
Despite the currency of the notion of mental illness, there are those who take the radical sceptical line that mental illness is a fabrication. This is a book which takes this sceptical line seriously - perhaps more seriously than almost any other book not written by sceptics themselves. 'The Metaphor of Mental Illness' is a revaluation of the traditional philosophical disputes about the existence and nature of mental illness. It puts forward a new view of mental illness and proposes a resolution of the issues, carefully guiding the reader through the issues and debates.Accessible to specialists and those new to the field, the book is full of practical examples, both historical and modern.Produktkennzeichnungen
