Continental Philosophy of Psychiatry The Lure of Madness

“In tracing the continental philosophy of psychiatry tradition, Morgan does indeed succeed in rescuing it from obscurity, in ways that will benefit many. For researchers, the book opens many exegetical and conceptual questions, or returns to old questions from a fresh perspective. For clinicians, a rich and pluralistic understanding of madness emerges, holding space for its difference while recognising the contexts of violence and contradiction that produce it. … As such, there are many who stand to gain from engaging with this important book.” (Robert Chapman, Psychiatrie Filosofie, psychiatrieenfilosofie.nl, June, 2023)
