Social psychiatry is concerned with the effects of the social
environment on the mental health of the individual, and with the
effects of the person with a mental disorder on his/her social
environment. The field encompasses social interventions, prevention
and the promotion of mental health. This new edition of
Principles of Social Psychiatry provides a broad overview of
current thinking in this expanding field and will be a source of
ideas both in research and for the management of mental disorder.
It opens by putting social psychiatry in perspective, within both
psychiatry and the social sciences. From the patient’s perspective,
the outermost influence is the culture in which they live, followed
by their neighbourhoods, workmates, and friends and family. The
next section considers how we conceptualize the social world, from
families through cultural identify and ethnicity to the wider
social environment.
The book reviews the social determinants and consequences of the
major mental disorders before considering interventions and service
delivery at various levels to mitigate these. It closes with a
review of the social impact of mental illness around the world and
a thoughtful essay by the editors on the current state of social
psychiatry and where it is heading.
