Cracked: Why Psychiatry is Doing More Harm Than Good

Controversial and powerful - a shocking indictment of the pseudo-science at the heart of modern psychiatry

Sedated: How Modern Capitalism Created our Mental Health Crisis

Using a wealth of studies, interviews with experts, and detailed analysis, Dr James Davies argues that this is because we have fundamentally mischar acterised the problem. Rather than viewing most mental distress as an understandable reaction to wider societal problems, we have embraced a medical model which situates the problem solely within the sufferer and their brain.Urgent and persuasive, Sedated systematically examines why this individualistic view of mental illness has been promoted by successive governments and big business - and why it is so misplaced and dangerous.
