This book is written by a doctor specialising in psychiatry; it will help the reader to understand and sympathise with the mentally ill. Mental, like physical, illness has many forms and many treatments; it can afflict young and old, and all ages between, with little apparent discrimination. It is as common, indeed more common, than most other forms of illness. it is real and, contrary to general belief, well-defined and, for the most part, susceptible to treatment. But it is exceedingly difficult to bear, hard enough to acknowledge and most painful to live with. 200 pp.. First Edition. Cloth. Good/Poor. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
