DON'T CALL ME NUTS! addresses one of the pressing issues in psychiatry today, indeed in the larger scope of civil rights in society--the stigma of mental illness. In its pages, Corrigan and Lundin explore all facets of the stigma which persons with mental illnesses face. DON'T CALL ME NUTS! is both a valuable resource, a history lesson, and a gaze into the future of a stigma-less community. 
DON'T CALL ME NUTS! is a handbook for persons with mental illness. In its pages are discussions about dealing with self-stigma, knowing when or whether to disclose a mental illness, seven ways to foster personal empowerment, and legal and political remedies. From the point of view of impacting society, DON'T CALL ME NUTS! explores the public's reaction to stigma through the methods of contact, education, and protest. 
Authors Patrick Corrigan and Robert Lundin are in themselves experts in the subject. Corrigan, the executive director of the University of Chicago Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation, has published widely on the subject and in the broader field of psychiatric rehabilitation. Lundin, a former freelance reporter for the Chicago Tribune, has lived with a schizoaffective disorder for 20 years.
