This Book Will Change Your Mind About Mental Health

- Nathan Filer

( Paperback )


I cannot recommend it highly enough.’ Caitlin Moran ‘Brims with compassion and wit.’ Cathy Rentzenbrink

I have never read a more powerful book about mental health.’ Joanna Cannon

‘Erudite, well-researched, and full of compassion… This book will change the way people understand schizophrenia, and that change is long overdue.’ - Christie Watson

Nathan Filer, mental health nurse and award winning writer, takes us on a journey into the psychiatric wards he once worked on. He invites us to spend time with world-leading experts, and with some extraordinary people who share their own stories - true stories - about living with mental illness.

A journey into the heartland of psychiatry. The book debunks myths, challenges assumptions and offers fresh insight into what it means to be mentally ill. And what it means to be human.

This Book Will Change Your Mind About Mental Health was previously published in 2019 in hardback under the title The Heartland.
