That world—where culture, history, and economy are found—radically impacts the public’s mental health. However these worldly considerations often do not feature centrally in the science and practice of clinical psychology, a subfield of psychology seemingly dedicated to mental health. Desai offers a corrective by travelling out of the clinic and into the world, exploring ideas, movements, and thinkers that help broaden our approach to well-being, by situating it within its cultural, historical, and sociopolitical contexts. The book aims to be an intercultural journey itself—encountering Buddhism, phenomenology, Edmund Husserl, Mahatma Gandhi, and Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. along the way. Featuring a Foreword by Jeffrey Sachs, the book positions pressing matters such as social justice, racial justice, and environmental justice as integral components of good mental health work. The book will be of interest to readers interested in cultural and community approaches to psychological science and practice. | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | 关键词 | clinical psychology; Frantz Fanon; Karen Horney; Erich Fromm; Phenomenology; community mental health; psyc | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-57174-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-57174-8 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2018 |
