The book critiques the disease model in psychiatry, asserting that it hinders the adoption of the disablement model for understanding mental health conditions like schizophrenia. It challenges prevailing notions and promotes a shift toward a more comprehensive approach that emphasizes the social and functional aspects of mental health, advocating for a reevaluation of how these conditions are perceived and treated.
