BOOK REVIEWS
chiatric social work, medico-legal aspects of psychiatry, and so on. As is always true of a compendum, the topics are subject to a loose organization, and the contents of the various chapters are of unequal quality. The book is of especial interest to the American student in psychological medicine because he can compare the trends of thinking of specialists within the British Commonwealth with the American orientation. The similarities over-shadow the difference, but to the student it is the divergence of approach which is likely to invite the greatest attention. They point to the relative fluidity of this field.
