Synopsis

How can people with severe mental health problems be supported in their personal recovery? This question lies at the heart of rehabilitation psychiatry, and perhaps of mental healthcare as a whole.

Our understanding of recovery has evolved rapidly since the first edition of this core text was published in 2006 – so this book comprises 31 entirely revised or newly commissioned chapters, giving readers a comprehensive overview of contemporary practice within psychiatric rehabilitation services. It takes a practical approach, guiding the reader logically and systematically from conceptual foundations to clinical practice and service development. The final section of the book covers special topics including rehabilitation in specific disorders and international perspectives.

The only UK text to focus on the recovery approach in rehabilitation psychiatry.

Edited and written by pioneers and leaders in the field.

Evidence-based, up-to-date and comprehensive.

Readership: All psychiatrists and the whole multidisciplinary mental health team. Also useful for allied healthcare disciplines and medical students.
