Suicide and Scandinavia

By Herbert Hendin

This is a study of national character as well as an investigation of the Scandinavian suicide phenomenon. Denmark, Sweden, and Norway have all been described as "social welfare states" and they are related historically as well as geographically. Yet the suicide rates in Denmark and Sweden are among the world's highest and are almost three times the strikingly low suicide rate inNorway. Seeking to understand this phenomenon, D.r Herbert Hendin of the Columbia University Psychoanalytic Clinic undertook a four-year study of suicide ni the Scandinavian countries. Using psychoanalytic techniques, he interviewed suicidal and non-suicidal patients as well as non-patients. He correlates the picture of the Norwegian, Swede, and Dane that emerges from Suicide and Scandinavia with the literature and folk tales of each country and also with such sources of popular culture as cartoons and stories in women's magazines.

Community Psychiatry

Edited By Leigh M. Roberts, Seymour L. Halleck and Martin B. Loeb

From he cover: The field of community psychiatry has been called "the third psychiatric revolution," the first major breakthrough in the field since the awakening of humanitarian concern among psychiatrists, and the Freudian scientific era. This third revolution can be broadly defined as the attempt by the community to use inter- related services to deal with the preventive and rehabilitative mental health problems of its people. For the psychiatrist, this new movement will mean less emphasis on intensive psychotherapy and more attention to the sociology of his community.

The Roots of Crime: Selected Papers on Psychoanalysis

USED BOOK. MAY CONGAIN MARK-UP

By Edward Glover

From the Preface: “When the social historian of the future looks back to the first half of the twentieth century with the detachment that comes with the passage of time, it will by then be apparent that amongst the revolutionary changes to be credited to that period, two at least were of vital importance to the development of humanism: the liberation of psychology from thefetters of aconscious rationalism, and the subsequent emancipation of sociology from the more primitive superstitions and moralistic conceptions of crime. It will also be apparent that this twin movement towards a new liberalism owed its impetus to the researches of a late- Victorian scientist, Sigmund Freud, who first uncovered the unconscious roots ofthat uniquely human reaction which goes by the name of 'guilt' and which is responsible for a brood of moralistic concepts, including those of sin, punishment, expiation and the sacrifice of scapegoats.”

Searchlights On Delinquency

Edited by: K. R. Eissler

From the introduction: “When his educational team was rebuilt after World War II, Aichhorn emerged not only as Vorstand but also as President of the re-established Psychoanalytic Society in Vienna. During the decade in which his own action was submerged and interrupted, his work continued everywhere on a world-wide scale. His book, Wayward Youth has become a kind of gospel and his papers the epistles to everyone whose work with juvenile delinquency was oriented to the psychological theories and methods Aichhorn h a ddevel- oped. Yet his popularity remained restricted to the circles of psychoanalysts and of social workers. Therefore the volume presented here has a twofold aim: first, to give Aichhorn the satisfaction that his work has ripened in science and practice everywhere, secondly, to expand and enhance ever further the popularity of his work. Psychoanalysis has become - whether accepted or debated - one of the main theoretical and practical bases of all professions dealing with human personality. ..”
