<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Les parcours de vies marquées par la maladie mentale lèvent le voile sur ce que c'est que de vivre avec des troubles mentaux sévères et imposent au lecteur l'expérience d'un rythme lent et long, celui de la persistance ou de la récurrence du mal-être psychique.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Dérives</em> proposes to immerse students in the psyche-possibly the most intimate of things-and to follow, almost day by day, people who are both fragile and resistant as they walk a tightrope. People for whom everything could change at any moment.</p><p><br></p><p><em>These accounts of investigations, all on the subject of drifting, are rooted in fact. Stories of setbacks and recoveries have been meticulously documented to form the psychiatric journeys of six people-four women and two men-from French-speaking Ontario. </em></p><p><br></p><p><em>Dérives</em> is the brainchild of two minds-one travelling kilometre after kilometre to meet witnesses, the other buried in medical records scrutinizing individual files. Their approach is based on historical methods: searches, encounters and history. </p><p><br></p><p>This book will be of interest to researchers and students in sociology, social and cultural anthropology, psychology, social work, and history, but also to any inquisitive minds. </p><p><br></p><p><em>Published in French.</em></p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Marie LeBel is a historian specialized in intellectual history and a professor in the interdisciplinary program at Université de Hearst. LeBel's research on Franco-Ontarian intellectuals and creatives, as well as her work on the history of mental health services in Northern Ontario, draws on individual and collective stories as evidence of broader social movements. </p> <p>Marie-Claude Thifault is a historian specialized in psychiatric institutions and mental health care in Quebec and Canada. Thifault is a full professor in the Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Ottawa and holds the Canadian Francophonie Research Chair in health.</p>
