Mental health is positioned as the cure-all for society's discontents, from pandemics to terrorism. But psychology and psychiatry are not apolitical, and neither are Muslims. This book unpacks where the politics of the psy-disciplines and the politics of Muslims overlaps, demonstrating how psychological theories and practices serve State interests and perpetuate inequality-especially racism and Islamophobia.

Tarek Younis is Senior Lecturer in Psychology at Middlesex University.
