The Unfragile Mind - Making Sense of Mental Health

'I thought Gavin Francis couldn't get any better, but I was wrong. This is his best and most important book' Bill Bryson'This is a book to change lives - and save them.' Ian RankinIn The Unfragile Mind, Gavin draws on conversations with patients, colleagues, and his thirty years of practice to explore the chequered history of psychiatry, the nature of mental health and ill-health, and the problems - including mood disorders, trauma, anxiety and addiction - that he addresses daily. The mind, he argues, is dynamic and adaptive - better addressed not with rigid labels and protocols, but with curiosity, kindness, humility and hope.
