Reviews
'The Cassel Hospital offers a very different kind of treatment from that provided by "traditional" psychiatry. The stakes are high, and this can create anxiety and ambivalence about the work in staff and feelings of anger, hope, and hopelessness in the patients. The chapters in this Monograph give testimony to these feelings and also explore how they can be worked with and contained in the hospital community structures.'- Lesley Day from her Introduction
