Publisher Description: First published in 1982, this volume presents a conspectus of the opinions of twelve distinguished psychiatrists on the nature and implications of their own discipline. The essays as a whole vividly convey the diversity of experience and outlook characterising an internationally representative group of practitioners of psychological medicine. At the same time they indicate the issues and concepts which need to be clarified if the subject is to achieve its potential. |
