Experts from a range of disciplinary backgrounds, including lived experience, clinical psychiatry, philosophy, clinical psychology, and cognitive neuroscience, discuss how delusions emerge, why it is so difficult to give them up, what their effects are, how they are managed, and what we can do to reduce the stigma associated with them. Taken as a whole, the book proposes that there is continuity between delusions and everyday beliefs. It is essential reading for researchers working on delusions and mental health more generally, and will also appeal to anybody who wants to gain a better understanding of what happens when the way we experience and interpret the world is different from that of the people around us. 2018-10-15 23:55 2020-03-18 13:36:15 2020-04-01T12:19:46Z 2020-04-01T12:19:46Z 2018 book 1001686 OCN: 1057689079 9783319972015 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/28276 eng application/pdf n/a 2018_Book_DelusionsInContext.pdf Springer Nature Palgrave Macmillan 10.1007/978-3-319-97202-2 10.1007/978-3-319-97202-2 6c6992af-b843-4f46-859c-f6e9998e40d5 7292b17b-f01a-4016-94d3-d7fb5ef9fb79 9783319972015 European Research Council (ERC) Palgrave Macmillan 130 Basingstoke 616358 FP7 SC39 FP7 Ideas: European Research Council FP7-IDEAS-ERC - Specific Programme: "Ideas" Implementing the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for Research, Technological Development and Demonstration Activities (2007 to 2013) open access
