Disorders, the set provides an inclusive approach to understanding
their causes, effects, and treatment. Whether readers are seeking
information about family members, friends, or themselves, these
books will help explain the challenges that individuals with mental
disorders and illnesses face. Volumes will explore problems most
of us face at some point, such as anxiety and depression, as well as
introducing readers to more specific challenges like autism,
schizophrenia & post-traumatic stress disorder.

By providing straightforward, well-researched information,
this series fosters tolerance and understanding of different mental
illnesses and disorders and discusses their possible causes, effects,
and treatments. Each title begins with the sentence “People who
cope with mental illness and disorders deserve our empathy and
respect”: a poignant statement that reflects this set’s compassionate
perspective. The books present relatable examples in order to shed
light on these disorders, while at the same time demystifying some
of their more uncommon aspects and dispelling stereotypes.
• VERDICT: A detailed, respectful, and thoughtful look
at mental health topics.
