Beyond Clinical Dehumanisation Towards Other in Community Mental - Levinas, Wonder and Autoethnography

Summary

This book offers a rare and intimate portrayal of the moral process of a mental health clinician that interrogates the intractable problem of systemic dehumanization in community mental health care, and looks to the notion of ‘wonder,’ and the visionary relational ethics of Emmanuel Levinas, for a possible cure.
