Theory, Policy, and Practice

by Simon Davis

tagged: mental health, health policy, health care delivery
Description

Community Mental Health in Canada offers a timely, critical overview of the provision of public mental health services in Canada, past, present, and future. This new edition has been substantially revised and expanded and includes a deeper discussion of stigma, the recovery vision, the pharmaceutical industry, and mental health law, in addition to an array of new topics. Recent developments such as the creation of the Mental Health Commission of Canada in 2007 and the release of its national mental health strategy document in 2012 are also discussed. Accessibly written and highly informative, it is an indispensable resource for students, practitioners, and policy makers, as well as service recipients and their families.
