| My family has just recently been dealing with our son who has been diagnosed with a mental illness. When I saw a review of this book, I ordered it. I'm so glad I did. It's a great reminder of why we no longer want to institutionalize those who are mentally ill. So many of the patients in this book would have been perfectly able to deal with the real world if they had received any kind of realistic help. Glad this type of mental asylum no longer exists! |
