Extract

It is incumbent on anyone who is honoured by an invitation to deliver the Maudsley Lecture to familiarise himself with the preceding lectures of the series. For me, the task has been unexpectedly instructive. Since its inception in 1919, the list of lecturers is impressive by virtue of not only their eminence, but also the heterogeneity and range of their selected topics. Taken as a group, the lectures emerge as a line of beacons which illuminate the direction, if not always the advances, of psychological medicine over the past three generations.
