About this book

James Davies' "Sedated" is a critique of the effects of contemporary capitalism on mental health. It contends that misinterpreting grief as a personal rather than a social issue is to blame for the rise in mental illness.

About the author

James Davies

Sedated argues that the rise in prescriptions for mental distress is not a medical story but an economic one: that a system needing people back at work quickly has an interest in locating the problem inside the individual, and that antidepressant use trebled in England across two decades without a matching improvement in outcomes.
