Recenzii

The first UK text that focuses on peer support, this book manages to combine an intellectual, research based approach with sensitive values, leading to a text that is accessible and practical. It does not shy away from the complexities of the role, function and nature of peer support, nor does it offer easy answers, yet the compassion, personal lived experience and humility of the editors shines through every chapter!
Peer support is an area of mental health that is developing and expanding very quickly. The editors have created an interesting and informative work that will help people understand the current debates in the field. Anyone interested in peer support will find this engaging and thought provoking.
