This book offers a rare and intimate portrayal of the moral process of a mental health clinician that interrogates the intractable problem of systemic dehumanization in community mental health care, and looks to the notion of 'wonder,' and the visionary relational ethics of Emmanuel Levinas, for a possible cure.

The value in Beyond Clinical Dehumanisation lies in its daring call to community mental health care providers and researchers to confront the dehumanisation of the "vulnerable help seeker" (the patient, the client), and their own moral injury. The book offers a multidisciplinary and fascinating analysis of the issues Catherine Racine raises through moving personal testimony about her work as a clinician, and through an examination of "wonder" informed by the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas. Racine illuminates the de-moralising, de-humanising subtext of the institution and points to the ethical clinical relationship that "ought to be". This thoughtful, well-argued and compelling book offers no simple answers. It is an intervention, a call to action, and an example of how the work of change can be approached. This is a worthy ethical primer and an inspiration for anyone working for structural and cultural reform inside or outside the walls of community mental health care.

At a time when healthcare professionals are increasingly stressed and healthcare systems under-resourced, what might result if the clinical encounter were to become a moment of wonder? Catherine Racine's beautifully observed, searchingly honest examination of community mental health care explores the nature of wonder by means of Levinas's ethical vision. It is both elegant testimony to autoethnography's disruptive potential in unmasking institutional power, and eloquent advocacy for a reimagining of the relationship between the medical professional and vulnerable help seeker in ways that could be profoundly humanizing for each.

Catherine Racine's book is an important and timely literary contribution. Her engagement with wonder, autoethnography, and Emmanuel Levinas adds a unique voice to the philosophy and the theology of wonder and manifests as a rich resource for mental health professionals, researchers, activists, students and service users worldwide challenging the problem of clinical dehumanisation.
