Reviews

There are so few, if any, books that offer such an excellent overview of mental health difficulties and stigma. Liz Sayce successfully brings together key issues, relevant research and evidence, and practical suggestions for positive change in an accessible yet engaging manner. I will be recommending it my own students. = Andrew Clifton, Senior Lecturer in Mental Health Nursing, University of Huddersfield, UK
