But complex conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and psychosis have been left behind, as have many of the people who live with these conditions or who care for them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePart memoir, part deep-dive investigation, \u003cem\u003eThe One Thing We’ve Never Spoken About\u003c\/em\u003e is filled with rage at how our nation’s public discourse, emergency services and healthcare systems continue to fail so many people. It is also a work of care, telling the little-heard stories of people who live with these conditions and work at the front lines of mental health. Above all, this timely, compelling book is informed by hope and courage, breaking down taboos and asking big questions about vulnerability, justice and duty of care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48244643004652,"sku":"9780645240108","price":41.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780645240108-the-one-thing-we-ve-never-spoken-about-1.jpg?v=1788007499"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/collections\/elfy-scott.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
