Laing, David Cooper, and Aaron Esterson in the 1960s, burned bright, but briefly, and has left a long legacy. This book follows their practical, social, and theoretical trajectory away from the structured world of institutional psychiatry and into the social chaos of the counter-culture. It explores the rapidly changing landscape of British psychiatry in the mid-Twentieth Century and the apparently structureless organisation of the part of the counter-culture that clustered around the anti-psychiatrists, including the informal power structures that it produced.</p><p>The book also problematizes this trajectory, examining how the anti-psychiatrists distanced themselves from institutional psychiatry while building links with some of the most important people in post-war psychiatry and psychoanalysis. The anti-psychiatrists bridged the gap between psychiatry and the counter-culture, and briefly became legitimate voices in both. Wall argues that their synthesis of disparate discourses was one of their strengths, but also contributed to the groups collapse.</p><p><em>The British Anti-Psychiatrists</em> offers original historical expositions of the Villa 21 experiment and the Anti-University. Finally, it proposes a new reading of anti-psychiatric theory, displacing Laing from his central position and looking at their work as an unfolding conversation within a social network.</p>...2950259The British Anti-Psychiatrists11031103https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-british-anti-psychiatrists-9781351690966/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2272230/1ed5b4e1-db58-4583-97f7-03080f21a997.jpg?v=638383747109600000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20179781351690966_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9781351690966_<p>The British anti-psychiatric group, which formed around R.D.
