Getting Into the System by Gwen Howe
The book addresses, through case studies, the barriers that can be encountered by people suffering mental distress and their relatives in getting access to appropriate care and treatment. The case studies come from the experience of the group members and are subject to group analysis by people who have direct experience of severe mental illness.
After 15 years in psychiatric social work, including experience of working with the mental health law, Gwen Howe went on in 1989 to pioneer a centre for individuals with serious mental illness which she ran until 1994. She has written five books, including Working with Schizophrenia, also published by Jessica Kingsley Publishing.
