03915. MENTAL ILLNESS SOCIAL WELFARE POLICY AND SERVICES. Very sophisticated and well-argued study of socio-political attitudes towards mental illness, from the point of view of the professional social worker. Part I contains an excellent discussion of the fact that mental illness is socially defined, but this does not make it an imaginary or facist concept. Part II is an historical study of social, professional and political attitudes preventing community support for mental health work; Part III is a good common-sense discussion of the need for an organized campaign by mental health professionals for more public support & greater public mental health services. 21p., 21f., 12b.
