Conversations in Critical Psychiatry brings together an edited selection of interviews from the series of the same name, published in the Psychiatric Times, with new and previously unpublished material. It explores critical and philosophical perspectives in psychiatry by engaging with prominent commentators within and outside the profession who have made meaningful criticisms of the status quo. By doing so, it advances our understanding of psychopathology and offers a pluralistic vision of psychiatric practice. The series started in May 2019; 33 interviews have been published to date and include many prominent psychiatrists and authors such as Allen Frances, Anne Harrington, Paul R. McHugh, S. Nassir Ghaemi, Lisa Cosgrove, Joanna Moncrieff, and Kenneth S. Kendler. Conversations in Critical Psychiatry brings together an edited selection of the most popular interviews along with some new material, including a detailed introductory essay “Psychiatry and the Critical Landscape”, previously unpublished interviews, and a new foreword.
