We have lost our way when it comes to treating serious mental illness: this is a powerful call to arms from highly respected doctor and therapist, Penelope Campling.'On the Brink is a book brimming with compassion, insight and tentative hope.' The Observer 'Deeply thoughtful and compassionate' Susie Or…bach, author of In Therapy?'As a GP I wish I could send patients to Penelope Campling; as someone worried about failing mental health services, I wish she were in charge.' Gavin Francis, author of Adventures in Human Being NHS psychiatrist and psychotherapist Dr Penelope Campling has spent a lifetime on the frontline of mental health care, working with patients in crisis.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Perhaps the truth is that severe mental illness is just as frightening, just as stigmatising, just as much a taboo as it has always been . . . Over the course of her forty-year career, psychiatrist and psychotherapist Penelope Campling has worked with patients from all walks of life, from su…rvivors of abuse to ICU doctors struggling under the strain of Covid-19. She has seen many positive changes in how we approach mental health and yet she is increasingly troubled by the state of our health services. Too often those who most need help are being failed by a system that cannot adequately care for them. In On the Brink Campling takes us into the therapy room, offering unique insight into how we treat those in distress. She shows us how the progress made in a more optimistic era of psychiatry is fast being eroded; how our struggling healthcare system often fails those who need our support; and how crucial it is in todays uncertain world that we do not turn away. Candid, compassionate and, above all, hopeful, On the Brink is a story of troubled minds and how we try to heal them. A clarion call to arms for radical change to the way we think about and treat those in mental distress Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that… encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
