Synopsis
Across the world, cities are becoming larger, as populations drift from the country into urban areas. At the same time, the mentally ill are leaving the mental hospitals and new forms of care are being found in the community. The best ways in which services for the mentally ill can be organized in the community is still a matter for debate, and as cities become larger problems may become greater.; This text compares mental health services in London with those in Amsterdam, Baltimore, Bangalore, Copenhagen, Kobe, Madison, Porto Alegre, Sydney, Teheran and Verona. It describes arrangements that work in practice, and includes some of the ideas and practices in mental health services., Across the world, cities are becoming larger as populations drift from the country into urban areas. At the same time, the mentally ill are leaving the mental hospital, and new forms of care are being found in the community. The best ways in which service for the mentally ill can be organised in the community are still a matter for debate, and as cities become larger problems may become greater. In this book, services in London are compared with those in ten other cities - Amsterdam, Baltimore, Bangalore, Copenhagen, Kobe, Madison, Porto Alegre. Sydney, Tehran and Verona - which all have mental health services with interesting and useful features. The reader can find examples of some of the best ideas and practices in modern mental health services. It indicates directions that have been travelled, and describes arrange-hat work in practice. The conference at which these findings were presented included users of these services at a scale never before attempted, and dialogues between service providers and users are reported. The chapters describing the services in each city consist of the background briefing papers prepared by each city, up-dated by each set of authors in the light of what they saw and heard at the conference. In particular, they have included sections on how they see probable future developments in their cities. The book is accompanied by an optional videotape describing the services in each city, and containing the views of users from round the world. Book jacket.

    The seller was very responsive and answered me on a timely matter. The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!

    Leaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration
