Lewis, B., Ali, A. and Russell, J. (2025). <em>Mad Studies Reader: Interdisciplinary Innovations in Mental Health.</em> New York: Routledge. Review by Lieve Carette and Liorah Hoek

Mad Studies is a rather young field, but as noted in the foreword to Lewis, Ali and Russell’s recently published reader, it has seen a surge in writings in the last few years. Activists, artists, scholars and clinicians critically and constructively examine psychiatry, mental health care, and cultural relations of mental difference. This reader compiles a diverse and thought-provoking collection of writings, offering valuable insights for those interested in mental health, social justice, and the politics of identity.
