Beskrivning
Wellbeing is a hot topic: governments, psychologists and a thousand self-appointed ‘experts’ all claim to promote it and yet our societies are experiencing record levels of mental distress and ill-health. Why?Matthew Fisher presents a compelling new perspective on psychological wellbeing informed by evidence on human stress responses. He shows how our mental health is shaped by the social and cultural conditions in which we all live.Developing arguments and strategies for a society truly committed to wellbeing, this book offers new ways to understand the problems facing modern societies and ways to respond through political and social change.

"Timely and thoughtfully argued ... guides our thinking to the realisation that governments and the whole of society need to protect the public interest to fight the juggernaut of private interests in a market economy." Fiona Stanley, Telethon Kids Institute and University of Western Australia
