|
'Professor Furedi has written an important book ... which is essential to the understanding of our times.'
- Theodore Dalrymple, Sunday Telegraph
Therapy is indeed the new opium of the people, as Frank Furedi makes clear in this fascinating, readable - and disturbing - book. - Virginia Ironside, The Independent
'Can it really be such a bad thing that we are now more aware of the place of mental health in our make-up? Furedi leaves us in no doubt that the therapy culture has invaded our media, our workplace, our intimate relationships and our politics. It is an interesting polemic. We should be grateful for the balance this book inspires'
- Community Care 25/4/04
'Furedi gives us much food for thought that we would do well to consider ... This book highlights the dichotomy between schools as centres of learning or of socialisation.' - Alan McLean, Times Education Supplement (Scotland)
'I enjoyed this book, and found it compulsive reading.' - www.AutoBiographyJournal.com
