While mental illness and mental health care are increasingly recognised and accepted in today's society, awareness of the most severely mentally ill is still dominated by stereotypes. Managing Madness in the Community explores how treatment options often depend on the social status, race and gender of both clients and carers; how ideas in the field of mental health care actually affect what happens on the ground; and how the fragmented American mental health system really works - or doesn't.
