Both books are accessible and straightforward, with minimal clinical jargon. Richly illustrated throughout, they also contain reflective tasks and case studies.
They are written by an interdisciplinary team of educators with extensive learning and teaching, clinical, education and professional learning expertise, who deliver evidence-based commentaries on a wide-range of mental health topics of increasing relevance in learning environments, with both learners and colleagues in the workplace.
