This book is instructive in showing how people respond mentally to various financial situations
It’s educational in that students can learn about different social structures

I can definitely understand financial insecurity and the cost of living, for a single, unmarried not even dating person it is difficult to survive and live within your means, living comfortably is not an option for most like myself. This book delves into more of that and more but also how much do you are share of it with your psychiatrist? This book is not what I thought it was going to be but offers some advice and a little hope.

Thanks to Netgalley, Michael Stein and University North Carolina Press for an ARC in exchange for ah honest review.

Thank you for the advanced copy in exchange for a review.

This book was powerful and beautifully written, some of the patients made me stop and think about the system we have here in the UK. It opened my eyes and blew my mind at the same time, the poverty made me cry.

I wish all GPs thought like this and that this was covered in medical school..
