Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 January 2018
Extract
In the past two decades revolutionary scientific advances and social developments have changed our attitude to the management of conditions associated with severe mental subnormality. Therapeutic achievement has admittedly been on a limited scale, and in terms of medical treatment in the conventional medical sense is likely to remain so. Very great hope lies, however, in the use of our newly-gained knowledge and expertise for prevention rather than cure.
