Psychopathology at School (eBook, PDF)

Theorizing mental disorders in education

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a timely response to concerns about the rising numbers of children whose behaviour is recognised and understood as a medicalised condition, rather than simply as poor behaviour caused by other factors. It is the first scholarly analysis of psychopathology which draws on the philosophers Foucault, Deleuze, Guattari and Arendt to examine the processes whereby children's behaviour is pathologised.
