About the Author :
Dr Bob Johnson is a fully qualified Consultant Psychiatrist as registered by the General Medical Council. He joined the Royal Medico-Psychological Association in 1958 after a degree in Psychology at Cambridge University, and has been a member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists since 1973. His book 'Emotional Health' starts with the premise that we should be in control of our emotions, not the other way around, and it challenges the psychiatric tendency to reduce us all to mindless unfeeling robots. His latest project is organising Emotion Support Centres, where recoverers help others recover.

Review :
Wow Bob! My dad sent me a copy of your new book...it's brilliant! It looks really well put together, pretty complex but accessible too, I really like it.
