Within the scientific community, the field of Psychiatry has been in freefall for a number of years. Its treatments and medications rest on assumptions that are, at best, unsupported, and at worst, entirely false. There is increasing recognition that environmental factors play a far greater role in mental health than genetic inheritance or inherent brain structure. Despite this, we have never been more medicated. No Such Thing as Normal is a deeply researched, timely, essential book that will shine a light on the psychiatric industry: its genesis, its obsession with often ineffective, over-medicalised treatments, and its relationship with a pharmaceutical industry driven by profitability rather than meaningful social welfare and change. Above all, Bigg will highlight those who most get left behind by the psychiatric machine, laying out the steps for a mental health system that helps, rather than neglects the people it claims to serve, and calling for long-overdue, desperately needed change.
