Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a passionate appeal for compassionate care and the establishment of a dedicated state-run facility for the treatment of North Carolina's mentally ill population. The author, a physician specializing in the treatment of mental illness, presents a comprehensive overview of the historical and contemporary state of mental healthcare in the region. Drawing upon extensive research, the author paints a vivid picture of the deplorable conditions in which the mentally ill are housed and treated, and argues that these conditions are not only inhumane but also exacerbate the illnesses of those confined. Compelling case studies illustrate both the tragic consequences of neglect and the remarkable recoveries that are possible with timely intervention and proper treatment.
