Dr Sabine Bährer, member of the Advisory Group for the ICD-10 revision for IFSW at the World Health Organization has edited a new book on Social Determinants and Mental Health. This book also includes a chapter from IFSW President Gary Bailey highlighting an international perspective on the issue.
The book is dedicated to the complex and continually varying determinants, keeping in mind that as early as 2005 the WHO instituted a commission to deal with the social determinants of health. The substance of this book is a discourse about health and, more particularly, mental health.
