More about the book
Focusing on the implications of the term "mental disease," Antony Flew critiques its misuse, arguing that it can excuse individuals from fulfilling their responsibilities. He challenges the broad application of this concept in both the U.S. and Europe, advocating for the preservation of human dignity and accountability. By addressing the overreach of mental health classifications, Flew emphasizes the importance of recognizing individual responsibility rather than labeling people as universally "sick."
