- The book is based on a decade of research that combines in-depth, multi-sited ethnography, digital ethnography, discourse analysis, clinical insight, and methodological and theoretical innovation. The author is a medical doctor and an anthropologist. The book provides an interdisciplinary intervention into debates on psychiatry, medicalisation, and subjectivity, particularly in relation to the Middle East. It speaks to clinical disciplines, the field of Science and Technology Studies, psychoanalysis, and anthropology, and has received high praise and reviews from various disciplines (psychiatry, anthropology, history of medicine, Middle East Studies, Iranian Studies, and psychology) reflecting the scope and complexity of the research.
