The public, mental health consumers, as well as mental health practitioners wonder about what kinds of values mental health professionals hold, and what kinds of values influence psychiatric diagnosis. This book is a most readable and scholarly examination of the role played by value judgements in mental illness, psychiatric diagnosis, and the DSM.
