The Social Nature of Mental Illness

The Social Nature of Mental Illness
Free Download Dr. Leonard Bowers, "The Social Nature of Mental Illness"
English | 1998 | pages: 226 | ISBN: 0415227771 | PDF | 1,0 mb
Psychiatrists assert that mental illness is a physiological brain disorder. The anti-psychiatry movement refutes this on grounds of lack of evidence claiming that mental illness is socially defined. Len Bowers offers a rational, objective and philosophical critique of the theories of mental illness as a social construct and concludes that, though sometimes misguided, they cannot be wholly rejected. This critical scrutiny of a controversial and keenly-debated issue will be of interest to psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists, sociologists and professionals in paramedical disciplines.

The Silent Partner Language, Interaction and Aided Communication
Free Download Martine Smith, "The Silent Partner?: Language, Interaction and Aided Communication"
English | ISBN: 1907826300 | 2016 | 312 pages | PDF | 8 MB
This book examines how communication aids are used in real interaction contexts by pulling together findings from a wide range of research focused on children with typical development, children with significant speech and physical impairments, and adults with acquired neurological disabilities. Across the chapters, the spotlight is on how the presence of a communication device impacts on interactions, and how different groups adapt their language and interaction style to accommodate aided communication. Rather than viewing communication aids as simply a poor substitute for speech, this book examines communication aid use as a unique, independent mode of communication that has the potential to shed light on the power of human communication and language learning.
