About This Book
"The 14 chapters of this book reflect a multidisciplinary approach to psychopathology in Islamic cultures. Essential reading for those who are involved in the multicultural world of the global village: psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers wishing to better understand their clients from Islamic cultures; anthropologists, historians, theologians, sociologists, and political scientists.
Chapters on religion and psychopathology, mental illness in medieval Islamic society, and forensic psychiatry under Islamic law, are followed by chapters on psychopathology in the diverse cultures of Algeria, the Arab Gulf, Iran, Malaysia, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia, and the mental health of Muslims who live in the West. The book concludes with chapters on psychotherapy in Islamic society, sex and sexual dysfunction."--BOOK JACKET.
