* A paper by Dr David Abrahamson on the trend towards community care in psychiatry
*
*
This article by Dr David Abrahamson, a former Together Trustee and current member of the Care Standards Committee, describes the process of psychiatric care since the asylums, through care in the community to the present day.

It was published in June 2006 by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers, Leiden and Boston, in For the Sake of Humanity: Essays in Honour of Clemens N. Nathan, edited by Alan Stephens and Raphael Walden.
