The book features a radical perspective on psychiatry and the 'mental health system' informed by an antipsychiatry perspective and anti-oppression analysis. In the Introduction, antipsychiatry is defined as active and radical resistance to psychiatry - antipsychiatry is not an intellectual or 'academic exercise.' This book should have wide appeal - not only for psychiatric survivors, antipsychiatry and social justice activists, but also for psychology and sociology students, psychologists and sociologists, dissident psychiatrists, 'mental health' lawyers, patient advocates, and anybody concerned about the power of psychiatry and its threats to our human rights, health, and lives.
