Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book delves into the significant shift in mental health policy following World War II, highlighting the transition from state hospitals to alternative care settings, which often left the severely mentally ill homeless. It examines the decline of public mental hospitals, which once played a crucial role in care and treatment, and the rise of community services that, while beneficial for many, failed to address the needs of the most vulnerable patients. Grob critiques the "community care" policy and advocates for necessary alternatives to improve mental health support.
