In this remarkable collection of interviews and essays, therapist, Madness Radio host, and schizophrenia survivor Will Hall asks, What does it mean to be called crazy in a crazy world? More than 60 voices of psychiatric patients, scientists, journalists, doctors, activists, and artists create a vital new conversation about empowering the human spirit by transforming society. Bold, fearless, and compellingly readable... a refuge and an oasis from the overblown claims of American psychiatry - Christopher Lane, author of Shyness: How Normal Behavior Became an Illness A terrific conversation partner. - Joshua Wolf Shenk, author of Lincoln's Melancholy: How Depression Challenged a President and Fueled His Greatness Brilliant...wonderfully grand and big-hearted. - Robert Whitaker, author of Anatomy of an Epidemic: Magic Bullets, Psychiatric Drugs, and the Astonishing Rise of Mental Illness in America Must-read for anyone interested in creating a more just and compassionate world. - Alison Hillman, Open Society Foundation Human Rights Initiative An intelligent, thought-provoking, and rare concept. These are voices worth listening to. - Mary O'Hara, The Guardian A new, helpful, liberating-and dare I say, sane-way of re-envisioning our ideas of mental illness. Paul Levy, Director of the Padmasambhava Buddhist Center, Portland, Oregon A fantastic resource for those who are seeking change.
