This volume argues that in a society where the metropolis dominates, it is a sterile view only to see health, illness, prevention and care outside of the urban context. Opinions and contributions are drawn from economics, sociology, political science and health care planning. `Any college library that supports programs in economics, health administration, or urban affairs should have this most recent volume of "SAGE's Urban Affairs Annual Reviews".' -- Choice, July/August 1984 `...of interest to all who want to explore new lines of thought about health and cities...It has lessons for all, especially if the reader makes the effort to translate events, attitudes and service provision into more familiar settings.' --

Over the past fifty years we have seen an enormous demographic shift in the number of people migrating to urban areas, proliferated by factors such as industrialisation and globalisation. Urban migration has led to numerous societal stressors such as pollution, overcrowding, unemployment, and resource, which in turn has contributed to psychiatric disorders within urban spaces. Rates of mental illness, addictions, and violence are higher in urban areas and changes in social network systems and support have increased levels of social isolation and lack of social support. Part of the Oxford Cultural Psychiatry series, Urban Mental Health brings together international perspectives on urbanisation, its impacts on mental health, the nature of the built environment, and the dynamic nature of social engagement. Containing 24 chapters on key topics such as research challenges, adolescent mental health, and suicides in cities, this resource provides a refreshing look at the challenges faced by clinicians and mental health care professionals today. Emphasis is placed on findings from low- and middle-income countries where expansion is rapid and resources limited bridging the gap in research findings.
