| Zusammenfassung: | Reviews the book, Work and Mental Illness: Eight Case Studies by Ozzie G. Simmons (1965). The author has the modest goal of showing "how patients live and act in the world of work." He attempts to meet this goal by presenting case histories of eight male schizophrenics, focusing on the pattern of employment and the effect of mental illness on this pattern. Only limited success is obtained. This book fails to show effectively the interplay between employment and mental illness. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved) |
