Voici une lecture du premier livre écrit à quatre mains par Gilles Deleuze et Félix Guattari, L'Anti-Œdipe, où s'entrecroisent une clinique du désir inconscient, une critique d'un mode de subjectivation « familialiste », et une politique de transformation des rapports sociaux contemporains.

Medicine is changing, towards a greater emphasis on self-care and patient choice. But truly collaborative care is hampered by inequality, exacerbated by stigmatisation and discrimination. These experiences of social exclusion can block the road to recovery for people with mental illness. People with mental illness are among the most socially excluded in our society. This book is concerned with social exclusion and mental disorder and the steps that psychiatrists and mental health workers can take to facilitate the social inclusion of people with mental health problems. Alongside contributions from psychiatrists and mental health professionals, people with mental illness and their carers write about the helplessness they sometimes feel when faced with mental health services, the challenges of caring for someone, and what might be done to aid the journey to recovery. The book encompasses a wealth of experience and evidence supported by research and everyday practice. This is an invaluable resource for mental health professionals, medical educators, policy makers, mental health service providers and charities.

Il y a près d'un siècle, Nietzsche comparait l'humanité de demain à une plage de sable tous les humains, disait-il, seront très égaux, très ronds, très conciliants, très ennuyeux. La prophétie nietzschéenne s'est réalisée. Ultime figure de l'histoire, le petit-bourgeois s'étend planétairement. Sur-contrôlé de l'extérieur, décorporalisé, désexualisé, hyper-normalisé, l'homme de la modernité, quoi qu'il en ait, sera de plus en plus l'image même de l'homme administré coulant une existence paisible dans des sociétés d'abondance totalitaires – sans jamais prendre conscience que si ses besoins y sont satisfaits, c'est au détriment de sa vie même. Dans cet essai au ton vif et personnel, Roland Jaccard a tenté de tracer le portrait psychologique de l'homme de la modernité. Et de préciser le rôle que jouent les employés de la santé mentale (psychologues, psychothérapeutes, psychiatres...) dans la vaste entreprise de normalisation des conduites indispensable au bon fonctionnement de nos modernes médiocraties anonymes. « Publié en 1975 aux Presses Universitaires de France, L'exil intérieur connaîtra un succès qui dépassa largement les attentes de son éditeur. Un article élogieux de François Bott en ouverture du Monde des livres, une invitation à Apostrophes, l'émission littéraire que Bernard Pivot venait de créer, il n'en fallut pas plus pour que ce bref essai n'entre en résonance avec un public féru de sciences humaines et d'emblée acquis à toute forme de contestation. Rien n'est plus étrange pour un auteur que de devenir l'homme d'un livre. C'est ce qui m'arriva. Je le défendis d'abord avec ardeur avant de m'en détourner, inquiet à l'idée d'être prisonnier des thèses et des thèmes qu'il avançait. Pour rester propre, il faut savoir changer d'idées comme on change de chemises. Je passai donc de l'anti-psychiatrie au nihilisme, de Freud à Wittgenstein et Cioran. Et, comme je l'avais toujours fait depuis mon adolescence à Lausanne, je livrai de temps à autre des pages de mes carnets personnels, persuadé que celui qui, après avoir tout démoli, ne se démolit pas lui-même, est un imposteur. Mais qui peut se flatter de ne pas l'être ? » (R. Jaccard, Préface)

The second edition of A Handbook for the Study of Mental Health provides a comprehensive review of the sociology of mental health. Chapters by leading scholars and researchers present an overview of historical, social and institutional frameworks. Part I examines social factors that shape psychiatric diagnosis and the measurement of mental health and illness, theories that explain the definition and treatment of mental disorders and cultural variability. Part II investigates effects of social context, considering class, gender, race and age, and the critical role played by stress, marriage, work and social support. Part III focuses on the organization, delivery and evaluation of mental health services, including the criminalization of mental illness, the challenges posed by HIV, and the importance of stigma. This is a key research reference source that will be useful to both undergraduates and graduate students studying mental health and illness from any number of disciplines.

Mental Disorder in Canada explores the history of psychiatric epidemiology, evaluates methodological issues, and analyzes the prevalence of several significant mental disorders in the population. The collection also includes essays on stigma, mental disorder and the criminal justice system, and mental health among women, children, workers, and other demographic groups. Focusing specifically on Canadian scholarship, yet wide-reaching in scope, Mental Disorder in Canada is an important contribution to the dissemination and advancement of knowledge on psychiatric epidemiology."--Pub. desc. "Canada has long been recognized as a leader in the field of psychiatric epidemiology, the study of the factors affecting mental health in populations. However, there has never been a book dedicated to the study of mental disorder at a population level in Canada. This collection of essays by leading scholars in the discipline uses data from the country's first national survey of mental disorder, the Canadian Community Health Survey of 2005, to fill that gap.

Depression, once a subfield of neurosis, has become the most diagnosed mental disorder in the world. Why and how has depression become such a topical illness and what does it tell us about changing ideas of the individual and society? Alain Ehrenberg investigates the history of depression and depressive symptoms across twentieth-century psychiatry, showing that identifying depression is far more difficult than a simple diagnostic distinction between normal and pathological sadness - the one constant in the history of depression is its changing definition. Drawing on the accumulated knowledge of a lifetime devoted to the study of the individual in modern democratic society, Ehrenberg shows that the phenomenon of modern depression is not a construction of the pharmaceutical industry but a pathology arising from inadequacy in a social context where success is attributed to, and expected of, the autonomous individual. In so doing, he provides both a novel and convincing description of the illness that clarifies the intertwining relationship between its diagnostic history and changes in social norms and values. The first book to offer both a global sociological view of contemporary depression and a detailed description of psychiatric reasoning and its transformation - from the invention of electroshock therapy to mass consumption of Prozac - The Weariness of the Self offers a compelling exploration of depression as social fact.
