Dr Ahmed Samei Huda works as a Consultant Psychiatrist specializing in early intervention in psychosis in the Greater Manchester area. He has worked as a consultant psychiatrist since 2002, including about a year in Australia, and has focused on clinical work rather than academic research. This is his first published book. It was written because he felt the issues it addresses are often not addressed from the point of view of a clinician who has a good knowledge of how psychiatry compares to the rest of medicine.
