Description

This edited collection introduces and explores radical alternatives to mainstream psychiatric practices. Crucially, these are not alternatives developed by professionals; they are innovative, survivor-led and survivor-run grassroots approaches. The contributors describe their origins, how they were developed, the challenges they faced, and continue to face, and the politics that inspired and continue to inform them.
