The book is an anthology of fourteen research articles and perspective papers in the discipline of mental health. It aims to dispel the misconception that issues of mental health are clinical in nature and are only relevant to the discipline of psychology. The articles attempt to connect the practice of Mental Health to everyday life and not restrict Guidance, Counselling and Psychotherapy to clinical settings. A strong introduction and some conclusive ideas for educators have been woven in to this end. After reading the book, the reader will be able to construct a more expansive notion about what guidance and counseling are and understand how they naturally constitute the core of Education for Mental Health. The book re-defines guidance and counseling and concludes by presenting a framework to schools for organizing mental health services. It is hoped that the anthology will make informative and insightful reading for all those interested in children, education and society.
