Gr.8°. XVI, 256 Seiten. Originalhalbleinen mit Umschlag. Gebraucht, aber gut erhalten. - For the seriously mentally ill, the streets of the 1980s have replaced the snake pits of the early 1900s. Deinstitutionalization, which was intended to provide services, follow-up, and aftercare for the two million seriously mentally ill individuals in our society, has instead been an act of dumping unprepared patients into unwilling and unready communities. In this powerful exposé of the mental health field, E. Fuller Torrey examines the current scene-the homeless mentally ill living untreated on the streets and in shelters, the increase in violent crimes for which they are partly responsible-and traces the history of the mental health establishment from Freud to the creation of the National Institute for Mental Health and beyond.
