Throughout both the developed and developing worlds, the treatment and care of the mentally disordered, and the need to improve the mental health of all citizens, has become a major political and professional concern.  \u003cp\u003eThis text sets out to monitor and analyse what supra-national and national policies have been and are being implemented, and to indicate what general themes and contradictions exist in the delivery of these policies. The implications from this review are then applied to professional practice - in particular that of the psychiatric disciplines (psychiatry and mental health nursing).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA series of case studies from across the world is presented. Each is written by a pre-eminent scholar in the field of mental health policy within a selected country. The case studies have been chosen on the basis of their geographical location to ensure that there is a spread of exemplars from across the world and\/or because of a unique approach to managing the mentally disordered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eContributors.  \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1\u003c\/b\u003e UK mental health policy: Chaos and control.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 2\u003c\/b\u003e US mental health policy: Progress and continuing problems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 3\u003c\/b\u003e Human rights, citizenships and mental health reform in Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 4\u003c\/b\u003e Italy: Radical reform of mental health policy and its consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 5\u003c\/b\u003e Egypt: 5000 years of science and care for mental patients.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 6\u003c\/b\u003e India: Towards community mental health care.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 7\u003c\/b\u003e Mental health policy in Brazil: From dictatorship to democracy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 8\u003c\/b\u003e Russia: Mental health reform in the post-Soviet period.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 9\u003c\/b\u003e Mental health policy in China: The persecution of Falun Gong.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 10\u003c\/b\u003e Metnal health in a post-war society: A history of neglect and denial of medical pluralism in Mozambique.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 11\u003c\/b\u003e Conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Nursing \u0026amp; ancillary services [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Nursing \u0026amp; ancillary services\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Nursing%20\u0026amp;%20ancillary%20services%20%5BMQ%5D%22\"\u003eMQ\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52511345115416,"sku":"9781861563880","price":56.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781861563880.jpg?v=1786597107","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/mental-health-global-policies-and-human-rights-paperback-softback-9781861563880","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
