Produktbeschreibung

The enormous health and social burdens associated with mental disorders have global reach and persist in the setting of unmet needs.

This book offers a much-needed introduction to the rapidly evolving field of global mental health. The editors bring their extensive expertise and experience in global mental health research, practice, and training, which includes working in academic and non-profit settings, building collaborations, and teaching hundreds of students and trainees. The volume's 12 chapters- authored by over 60 contributors from multiple disciplines-offer a breadth of content that comprises an introductory framework.

This volume is an essential read for learners and educators who seek to explore or deepen their interest in the field of global mental health. Its orientation to fundamentals of practice and training and contextualization with social science perspectives will also be invaluable to health professionals, social scientists, policymakers, and other professionals who are invested in training the next generation of global mental health practitioners.
