Note (General): Summary: "In an original and provocative study of suicide, Ian Marsh examines the historical and cultural forces that have influenced contemporary thought, practices and policy in relation to this serious public health problem. Drawing on the work of French philosopher Michel Foucault, the book tells the story of how suicide has come to be seen as first and foremost a matter of psychiatric concern.

The book will be of particular interest to researchers, professionals and students in psychology, history, sociology and the health sciences"--Provided by publisher
