Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the flaws within institutions that handle the housing of Chicago's mentally ill, juvenile delinquent, and socially vulnerable populations. Completed in 1917, this book represents one of the first critical examinations of a county's mental health system in the United… States, and offers not only an overview of the provisions in place for these individuals at the time but also discusses the evolution of the present system and the changes that need to be implemented to improve the system for the future. The author argues that the existing system falls short of the highest standards in many ways, and has room for improvement in both structural and personnel areas. Despite these shortcomings, there is much to be gained by examining the motivations of those working within these broken systems, who often work under the most difficult circumstances but still bring dedication and compassion that is commendable and rare. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
