Episode Synopsis

Send us a textIn this week's episode, I speak with Professor Lisa Bortolotti, Professor in the University of Birmingham on the Philosophy of Psychiatry. Our discussion was based around the notion of mental disorders and how they are viewed in the field. We also discuss the blurred lines between delusions and irrational beliefs, agency in mental health (where Professor Bortolotti talks about one of her studies done on young people in the UK) and how we should be looking into individual agency.  Website: https://sites.google.com/site/lisabortolottiphilosophy/Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisabortolottiBooks:Delusions and Other Irrational Beliefs - https://www.amazon.com/Irrational-International-Perspectives-Philosophy-Psychiatry/dp/0199206163/ref=sr_1_7?qid=1682434606&refinements=p_27%3ALisa+Bortolotti%3B&s=books&sr=1-7The Epistemic Innocence of Irrational Beliefs - https://www.amazon.com/Epistemic-Innocence-Irrational-Beliefs/dp/0198863985/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1682434606&sr=1-8Why Delusions Matter (Why Philosophy Matters) - https://www.amazon.com/Why-Delusions-Matter-Philosophy-Matters/dp/1350163309/ref=sr_1_10?qid=1682434606&refinements=p_27%3ALisa+Bortolotti%3B&s=books&sr=1-10Talk by Lisa Bortolotti: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7ICtezqf-0
