{"product_id":"storying-mental-illness-and-personal-dorthe-kirkegaard-thomsen-9781108830454","title":"Storying Mental Illness and Personal Recovery","description":"This book contains excerpts of life stories from 118 individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and major depressive disorder. This library of personal narratives, heavily reproduced and quoted throughout the text, presents a composite image of the ways in which narrative identity can be affected by mental illness while also being a resource for personal recovery. Those researching, studying, or practicing in mental health professions will find a wealth of humanizing first-person perspectives on mental illness that foster perspective-taking and aid patient-centered treatment and study. Researchers of narrative psychology will find a unique set of life stories synthesized with existing literature on identity and recovery. Moving toward intervention, the authors include a 'guide for narrative repair' with the aim of healing narrative identity damage and fostering growth of adaptive narrative identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dorthe Kirkegaard Thomsen, Tine Holm, Rikke Jensen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108830455\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108830454\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.75d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2023","brand":"Dorthe Kirkegaard Thomsen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44071313637631,"sku":"9781108830454","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bdb08a44-7e2f-4da0-86a3-048b8f4054fe.jpg?v=1685435371","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/storying-mental-illness-and-personal-dorthe-kirkegaard-thomsen-9781108830454","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
