Addresses the ethical issues relating to the treatment of mental illness and the question of autonomy. The book goes beyond the simplistic arguments previously expounded in this area and considers the ethical issues raised by specific forms of treatment, with far-reaching and fundamental implications for societal attitudes relating to the improvement and care of the mentally ill.
