Summary: "Community mental health has evolved as a discipline for over 50 years now. In describing this evolution as well as current approaches, this book combines traditional concepts, such as community-based interventions and an epidemiological perspective, with newer concepts, such as shared decision-making, the recovery philosophy, evidence-based practices, implementation fidelity, telemedicine, and technology tools - all of which have shaped the field over the past decade.

This second edition of the Oxford Textbook of Community Mental Health addresses recent changes and achievements, current controversies, and future challenges while emphasizing areas of convergence, where social values, health and medical sciences, and policy formation come together"--
