Psychiatry in Dissent

<p><strong>Tavistock Press</strong> was established as a co-operative venture between the <strong>Tavistock Institute</strong> and <strong>Routledge & Kegan Paul</strong> (RKP) in the 1950s to produce a series of major contributions across the social sciences. <br> This volume is part of a 2001 reissue of a selection of those important works which have since gone out of print, or are difficult to locate. Published by <strong>Routledge,</strong> 112 volumes in total are being brought together under the name <em>The International Behavioural and Social Sciences Library: Classics from the Tavistock Press</em>.<br> Reproduced here in facsimile, this volume was originally published in 1980 and is available individually. The collection is also available in a number of themed mini-sets of between 5 and 13 volumes, or as a complete collection.</p> 1: The Concept of Mental Illness; 2: Models of Mental Illness; 3: The Diagnostic Process; 4: What is Schizophrenia? 5: Causal Factors in Schizophrenia; 6: Electroconvulsive Therapy; 7: Psycnosurgery; 8: Responsibility and Compulsory Hospitalization; 9: The Contemporary State of Psychiatry
