product description

Description

Challenging contemporary enthusiasm for interdisciplinarity, the book calls for rethinking 'psychology' as an anthropological inquiry. It provides ethnographic studies of talking therapies, subjects, institutions, professionals and psychological persuasions, suggesting how anthropology can improve psychological healthcare.
