I am pleased to announce the development of a very exciting new project: <i>The Handbook of Language, Discourse and Mental Health</i>. The
<i>Handbook</i> is a single-volume, edited work of reference, mainly aimed at a scholarly market. The book will present a theoretical and research-based state-of-the art comprehensive overview of an interdisciplinary field by bringing together a range of critical
and pluralistic perspectives. The <i>Handbook </i>aims to include chapters on a range of topics that critically consider key historical themes and enduring debates, main theoretical and philosophical stances, examine main methodologies paradigms and scholarly
traditions, and consider future trajectories within the field of language and mental health as well as the implications to individuals with lived experience. The
<i>Handbook</i> is intended to be one of the most significant publications available for scholars in these fields. We are currently seeking contributors for The
<i>Handbook of Language, Discourse and Mental Health</i>, so please find below some relevant information on Handbooks. </div>
