Summary

This introductory chapter outlines the structure of the book and some of the themes that appear throughout the book. The themes include intersectionality, the role of social factors in causing and maintaining mental ill-health, the need for a public mental health approach, and the role of mental health professionals and services in facilitating social inclusion. We discuss why social exclusion violates social justice and social solidarity, and put forward ten reasons why mental health professionals should be concerned with social exclusion.
