The Social Nature of Mental Illness
ISBN: 9780415227773 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Psychiatrists assert that mental illness is a physiological brain disorder.

This critical scrutiny of a controversial and keenly-debated issue should be of interest to psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists, sociologists and professionals in paramedical disciplines.
