A revolutionary new perspective on the way we explain human behaviour and define mental health

This controversial new book describes how human behaviour - thoughts, emotions, actions and mental health - can be largely explained if we understand how people make sense of their world and how that framework of understanding has been learned. In this ground-breaking work, Peter Kinderman presents a simple, but radical new model of mental well-being.

Published in the wake of the controversial Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the author challenges notions such as 'mental illness' and 'abnormal psychology' as old-fashioned, demeaning and invalid, and argues that diagnoses such as 'depression' and 'schizophrenia' are unhelpful.

Kinderman believes that one consequence of our current obsession with a medical approach to human well-being and distress is that human problems are too often merely diagnosed and treated, rather than understood. Written by an expert in his field, and accessible to all those interested in and affected by mental health issues, The New Laws of Psychology will change the way we define mental illness forever.
