Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book offers a detailed critical analysis of the representation of mental health conditions across a range of fictional and factual genres in film, television and radio, thus presenting an understanding of the ways in which media forms construct a mental health space, portray the related realities and identities, organize meaning about mental health through language, and addresses audiences in respect of a range of mental health issues. |
