This book explores how the continental philosophical tradition in the 20th century attempted to understand madness as madness. It is a trap because this philosophical tradition constructs an otherness of madness so profound, that it condemns madness to silence.

“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)
