It lay in biological solutions, focusing on mental illness as a problem of the brain, to be managed or improved through drugs. We entered the "Prozac Age" and believed we had moved far beyond the time of frontal lobotomies to an age of good and successful mental healthcare. Biological psychiatry had triumphed. Except maybe it hadn't. Starting with surprising evidence from the World Health Organization that suggests that people recover better from mental illness in a developing country than in the first world, Doctoring the Mind asks the question: how good are our mental healthcare services, really? Richard P. Bentall picks apart the science that underlies our current psychiatric practice. He puts the patient back at the heart of treatment for mental illness, making the case that a good relationship between patients and their doctors is the most important indicator of whether someone will recover. Arguing passionately for a future of mental health treatment that focuses as much on patients as individuals as on the brain itself, this is a book set to redefine our understanding of the treatment of madness in the twenty-first century.

Hardcover: In 1982, during the Falklands War, the Welsh Guardsman Simon Weston was robbed of his youth, his looks and, it seemed his future, when the troopship Sir Galahad was hit by an Argentinian bomb, creating a holocaust in which many men died and Simon suffered terrible burns. Simon's story is one of great personal triumph over appalling tragedy and intense mental suffering. After a period of deep despair during which he came close to suicide, Simon found the strength to confront life once again and create a new future. The first half of this volume has been an inspiration to millions. It describes, in his own words, Simon's childhood in the Welsh village of Nelson, his life in the army, the horrific events of 1982 and his attempts to come to terms with the profound physical and mental scars of his experiences. The second half is about his journey back to the Falklands and to meet the pilot who dropped the bomb on Sir Galahad so that he could come to terms with his new life. The most moving story ever told.

(This title is available on demand: expected date of dispatch will be 4-7 working days once ordered) This frank account of New Zealand Spitfire pilot Doug Brown traces his training and action experienced in the RAF and social activities during the war. From 'signing up' as a young 20 year old when World War II broke out in 1939, he ventured to Canada on the Awatea with 200 trainees and then on to England. The first solo in a Spitfire was almost his last and he crashed on his first operation with 485 Squadron. It was a life of contrasts: the thrill of flying; the loss of fellow airmen; anticipation of combat; the boredom of 'readiness'; indulgent mess banquets; rough conditions; pranks and comradeship; and the unrelenting toil of war. None would deny the effect the intensive active service would have on the mental and physical state of pilots and all servicemen. Boys quickly became men and survivors would claim they were the best years of their lives. Format:Hardback Pages:368
