Produktbeschreibung

Asia is a huge region with a large number of societies and cultures, resulting inevitably in varying mental health needs, mental health practices and societal attitudes to mental health. This handbook surveys the state of current psychiatric care across the Asia-Pacific region. Focusing on individual countries, each chapter summarises the factors affecting practice and provision of psychiatric care, the services and training available, and country specific innovations and folk therapies. As the first major reference work on psychiatric care in Asia, this book is an essential resource for scholars and students researching mental health in Asia as well as mental health professionals in the region.
