The Hearing Voices Network – “The Freedom to Hear Voices”: The Hearing Voices Movement
Psychology, Mental Health and Distress is a groundbreaking new text from John Cromby, David Harper and Paula Reavey.

- Fully informed by current experimental, qualitative and theoretical psychological research including research into hearing voices
- Includes a chapter authored by those with first-hand experience of mental health services, ensuring your students understand the nuances of this emotionally charged and often controversial topic
Features additional contributions by renowned figures including Professor Richard Bentall, Professor John Read, psychiatrist and researcher Joanna Moncreiff and campaigner and Chair of the Hearing Voices Network, Jacqui Dillon among others.
