| Annotation | The psychosocial concepts of 'personality disorder' and 'homelessness' are discussed, and the authors seek to redefine and relocate both concepts from the internal world of the patient or client to the psychosocial 'dis-memberment' associated with what they have called the 'unhoused mind'. They explore the complex reciprocal relationship between the 'ordered' and the 'dis-ordered', the housed and the unhoused, and consider some possible implications for individual workers, staff teams and organisations tasked with attempting to house and/or to care for and support such people.
