It is a detailed study of a London day hospital, a model community for psychoanalytic treatment in a democratic setting which went badly wrong in its attempt to capture the momentum of de-institutionalization in mental health care. It is also a critique of power for our time, as it moves well beyond a case study to analyse shifts in social control.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Free Associantion Books","offers":[{"title":"Asylum to Anarchy | Claire Baron | Paperback | 9780946960620 | Used: Very Good | Psychology 1698068","offer_id":50820368924930,"sku":"1698068","price":22.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/51NkWhUkzjL.jpg?v=1792545300","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/asylum-to-anarchy","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
